Became a lieutenant colonel in 2022.[2]

At the end of the government, Cid planned to continue his career commanding one of the Army battalions in Goiânia. Cézar Feitoza e Marianna Holanda (2022-11-04).

Retrieved 2023-05-18.</ref> The president Lula asked Defence Minister José Múcio Monteiro to reppeal his appointment.

Army commander Júlio Cesar de Arruda was fired for not complying with the order, so Cid made a request for a command amendment, and on 24 January 2023, Tomás Paiva, the new commander, transferred him to an administrative position in the direction of the Army Land Operations Command.[6][7]

On 3 May he was preventively arrested by the Federal Police of Brazil in Operation Venire, on suspicion of fraud in the Conecte SUS[8]. He was summoned to testify at the 8 January CPMI on 13 July, but he remained silent, including questions unrelated to the prosecution, such as his date of birth. Therefore, the CPMI sued the Federal Court of the Federal District and the Supreme Federal Court for abuse of the right to remain silent.[9]

Criminal investigations

Tax crimes

Cid is investigated by the Federal Police for withdrawing resources from corporate cards of the Presidency.[2]

Saudi jewelry

Mauro Cid was accused of trying to remove Saudi jewels, gifts from the government of Saudi Arabia found in the suitcase of an advisor from the Ministry of Mines and Energy, from the customs at Guarulhos International Airport, which were retained because they had been declared to the Federal Revenue as an item staff, exempting them from taxes. He signed a letter on December 28, 2022, asking for the “incorporation of assets into the public collection of the Presidency of the Republic”. However, in a statement to the Federal Police, Army 2nd Lieutenant Cleiton Hozschuck, Mauro Cid's subordinate, stated that the jewels were destined for the personal collection of the President of the Republic, Jair Bolsonaro, a hypothesis that is reinforced by a document signed by a servant of the Federal Police. orders, which would report the completion of the process. In that document, it is also stated that the jewelry would go to Jair Bolsonaro. Also, Marcelo da Silva Vieira, head of the Deputy Cabinet for Historical Documentation, stated that he received a call from Cid saying that he would receive a series of information so that the gift could be delivered to the president.[10] He also urgently asked for a Brazilian Air Force plane to take Sergeant Jairo Moreira da Silva to pick up the jewels in São Paulo.[11]

Digital militias

Mauro Cid was appointed as a member of the digital militias in an investigation by the Federal Police into Bolsonaro's live, where the president linked COVID-19 vaccines with HIV. He would also be responsible for disclosing data about the hacker attack on the Federal Supreme Court.[12][13]

Cid and five other people were arrested on May 3, 2023 in the Federal Police's Operation Venire on suspicion of fraud in the Conecte SUS. The group would have defrauded the data of Jair and Laura Bolsonaro, Cid himself and his family on December 21, 2022, with the aim of guaranteeing entry into the United States, which requires vaccination against COVID-19 to enter the country.[14] His wife traveled to the US three times with a fraudulent vaccination card.[15] A search and seizure warrant was also carried out at Mauro Cid's house, where US$ 35,000 and R$ 16,000 in cash were seized.[16] In addition, his cell phone was examined and bank transactions were found in an account in the United States. His defense states that the money comes from services provided abroad, and that military personnel who perform this type of service have a Bank of Brazil account opened in Miami.[17]

Attempted coup d'état

According to the Federal Police, between April and May 2022, Cid exchanged messages with fugitive blogger Allan dos Santos, discussing the need for a military coup. On May 31, amid discussions between protests by anti-fascist groups against Bolsonaro, Cid classified the movements as "terrorist guerrillas", and that "we are returning to 68, but now with media support".[18]

On December 15, Cid exchanged audios with former Major Ailton Barros, "Bolsonaro's 01", where they would try to pressure Army commander Marco Antônio Freire Gomes so that "he does what he has to do".[19] The audios are being analyzed by the Federal Police of Brazil.[20]

Also, according to journalist Andréia Sadi, from G1, Cid heard coup proposals from a former minister of Bolsonaro and Daniel Silveira.[21]

An investigation carried out by the PF on his cell phone revealed a series of documents and conversations that would prove Mauro Cid's participation in a plan to carry out a coup d'état. Among the documents are a draft ofGarantia da Lei e da Ordem (GLO) and negotiations for the enactment of a State of emergency.[22] Because of the revelations made by the PF, the summoning of Mauro Cid became a priority in the CPMI do Golpe.[23]

Defense

Initially, his defense was made by Rodrigo Roca, Flávio Bolsonaro's former lawyer in the "rachadinhas" case, but Cid's family assessed that he was more interested in protecting the Bolsonaro family than his client. That's why he was replaced by Bernardo Fenelon, a specialist in award-winning whistleblowers who worked in Operation Lava Jato.[24]
