Zambelli Claims Unconstitutional Arrest: Fleeing Brazil After 10-Year Sentence

Brazilian Deputy Carla Zambelli, facing a 10-year prison sentence for her involvement in the CNJ system hacking, claims the PGR's request for her arrest is unconstitutional. In a video statement released just hours before she reportedly left the country, Zambelli stated, "They're going to tear up our Constitution again?" The PGR's request to the STF for preventive detention is based on Zambelli's conviction. However, Zambelli insists that her political immunity prevents arrest except in cases of flagrante delicto for unbailable crimes. The STF is currently reviewing the PGR's request, and Zambelli's defense has already filed appeals. The situation highlights ongoing political tensions and legal battles in Brazil.
