Heleno Invokes Right to Silence in STF Interrogation
General Augusto Heleno, former Institutional Security Office (GSI) minister in Brazil, invoked his right to remain silent during questioning at the Supreme Federal Court (STF) on June 10th, 2025.

This event is significant due to Heleno's previous role in the government and its potential implications for ongoing investigations.
