In addition, Lula assured that an investigation will be launched to find those responsible for the destruction, and those who financed this violent demonstration. She assured that all of them “will be identified and punished” with the full force of the law.
Lula’s message was transmitted from Araraquara, a town in São Paulo that was affected by floods in recent days, and where Lula had arrived to visit the victims. There she announced that she will travel to Brasilia in the next few hours to visit the places attacked.
The president of Brazil spoke on national television and said that “the buildings have been destroyed after the invasion” and that “all these people will be found and punished.” “You cannot attack democratic freedom, free expression,” he said, adding: “We ask people to respect the institutions that were created to maintain order.”
In that sense, he treated the protesters as “fanatical fascists” and recalled that “the like has never happened in the history of this country.” He even maintained that the left had “people killed and people disappeared”, but that “a left party never took over the judiciary and the legislative power.” “All people will be punished, we are going to find out who financed these bandalos and they will pay it with all the force of the law,” he added.
