Kriska Carvalho wrote that Willer Tomaz was a longtime friend of Flávio Bolsonaro and that the two even shared a bill. According to her, Flávio acknowledged the relationship, which, in the author's assessment, went beyond friendship. Carvalho stated that Willer competed with a company linked to the player Richarlison for a mansion in Angra dos Reis, for which the athlete said he paid around R$ 10 million. Flávio had previously visited the property and returned in 2021 with Willer, who allegedly showed interest in the property despite knowing about the negotiation. The author also mentioned that companies linked to Willer were associated with other properties frequented by Flávio in the city. The publication also reported that, in January 2025, Flávio, his wife, and his daughters traveled from the United States to Brasília on a Legacy 650 jet, accompanied by Willer. According to Carvalho, the aircraft went through a business structure linked to Prime You, of which Daniel Vorcaro, former controller of Banco Master, was a partner. Carvalho also claimed that, during the 2026 campaign, Flávio used an apartment in São Paulo that belonged to a company of Willer. The property is said to have been purchased for R$ 5.5 million in 2025 by Fabiano Zettel, Vorcaro's brother-in-law and identified by the federal police as the former banker’s financial operator, and sold in February 2026 to Willer’s company for R$ 3.5 million. The author added that Willer was the subject of a search and seizure in August 2026 as part of the investigation into fraud at the INSS. According to her, the federal police were investigating whether companies linked to the lawyer served as a "financial, property, and logistical hub" related to Senator Weverton Rocha. Finally, Carvalho stated that Willer was the lawyer for Alexandre Caetano dos Reis, whom she described as being linked both professionally and commercially to Antônio Carlos Camilo Antunes, known as Careca do INSS. Alexandre is the brother of Letícia Caetano dos Reis, who managed Flávio Bolsonaro's law firm and, according to the publication, claimed to have joined the firm on Willer's recommendation. #FlavioEscandaloINSS #INSS #Corrupção #PolíticaBrasileira (translated)
