The Formula E all-electric series has signed a multi-year broadcasting deal with Grupo Bandeirantes to show the all-electric series in Brazil
Context: Formula E has proven itself to be a popular property in Brazil
having been shown on FTA network TV Cultura since 2020
Brazilian media group Globo secured the pay-TV broadcast rights at the same time
but this contract expired ahead of the 2023 season
said: “We are excited by this positive new partnership with Grupo Bandeirantes at the beginning of a new era for Formula E in one of the biggest motorsport markets in the world
Fans in Brazil can look forward to high-quality live and localised coverage across multiple platforms all season long starting this weekend with what we hope will be a thrilling opening race in Mexico City as the new Gen3 race car competes for the first time.”
Protesters have painted over Gato’s statue before
and calls have intensified to take it down altogether
Since the statue of slave trader Edward Colston was dragged from its plinth and thrown into the River Avon in Bristol
the issue has again been revived — in São Paulo and across Latin America
where monuments and public spaces celebrating slave traders and slave holders are everywhere
The debate about these and other controversial statues is more of a “discussion about the present
“Monuments and memorials are a way of punctuating particular histories— when people engage with them
they open up important conversations,” said Katherine Hite
a professor of political science at Vassar College who focuses on the politics of memory
people have joined protests in support of the Black Lives Matter movements
Latin America’s legacies of racial discrimination and police brutality are reviving old debates about who is honored in public spaces and starting new conversations about what national heroes represent today. Still
public health concerns may limit the impact of the “Colston effect”

Flooding struck in the early house of 05 March 2023 following torrential rainfall
The municipal government reported over 150 mm of rain in a short period
The volume and intensity of the rain caused rivers to break their banks
Around 250 homes were damaged and over 700 people were displaced
Roads are impassable and schools have been closed
Full damage assessments are yet to be completed
“We still haven’t been able to assess the damage
since we have several damaged bridges which we need to rebuild
and people are isolated,” Jaelson Matta
Many of those displaced are being housed in local schools and other public buildings
Local authorities are providing food and other relief supplies
The Municipality of Bandeirantes declared a state of emergency late on 05 March

Research shows the old Portuguese language
that left São Paulo in the 17th Century and still survives in the daily language of other states
reproductionMeeting of bands in the backlands
by Pereira da Silva: the exchange of information and words at these meetingsreproduction
devourers of forests: the half-castes from the São Paulo of Piratininga advanced into the backlands at the twilight of the 17th century
The bandeirantes were unscrupulous mercenaries
but heroes for geography and for the language
They expanded the frontiers of the country
and the signs of their influence proliferate to this day in the local cultures and languages
With this certainty in mind that a group of language scholars ranged the hinterland of São Paulo
Mato Grosso and Goiás to pluck out the backland traces in Brazilian speech
A professor of philology and the Portuguese language at the University of São Paulo
Heitor Megale is the flag-bearer of the new expedition
After the end of the gold cycle and of slavery
they kept the linguistic variant of the colonial days
The project sought to collect traces of the language of colonization that have remained or undergone variation
The idea is to catch the oral heritage in places founded by the frontiersmen or that arose with their advance
“There is no more important colonizing route with continuous demographic movement for over half a century”
“That is why it is possible to come across traces of the old linguistic layer
and ended up limited to rural speech.”
The researchers took as their basis the route of the 1674 march
started by the 40 men led by Fernão Dias Paes
The original journey was an adventure without parallel
when he commanded an immense band in pursuit of silver and emeralds
He went from São Paulo to the headwaters of the Velhas river (MG)
we gave priority to the paths followed exhaustively in the 17th and 18th centuries prospect gold”
to the furthest west (in the Cuiabá lowlands) to the far north
“We included places that had suffered other incursions
and avoided spots with a strong modern influence
adds one of those taking part in the project
The team of 19 researchers worked on two fronts
One effort concentrated on collecting the traces of speech identifiable in documents of the time
The other was to record the speech of illiterate old people in the regions
they want to catalogue oral marks that do not belong to standard Portuguese
to ascertain what they retain of the archaic
“The root of Bandeirante Philology lies in the comparison between the data of the period and the speech of the informants”
As there is no database of the speech of the period to become a point of reference for the research in the field
Megale’s team’s first act was to look for it in 17th century documents
There were boxes with hundreds of notaries’ documents
letters and reports on incursions into the backlands used to transcribe the oral communications of the people”
the Historical Archives hold official letters on the incursions
such as those by Borba Gato and Amador Bueno
civil lawsuits and auctions are the indirect harbingers of the spoken language of the period”
there are 975 sheets and copies of manuscripts from the 17th and 18th centuries
as well as the digital files of older documents
Added to this volume were dozens of 74 minidisks (MDs)
with the interviews with illiterate old folks
less influenced by contemporary oral usage
12 boondocks were rummaged through by Maria Antonieta Cohen’s team
Maria Sueli Aguiar’s team scoured 14
two more than Manoel Mourivaldo Santiago Almeida’s group
The choices in São Paulo were strategic one
The demographic movement towards the Cataguá backlands
as the region they entered was called in those days
after crossing the gorges of the Mantiqueira range
“This was why the Taubaté and Cunha region interested us
since it was the way to cross the Mantiqueira and for the gold to come back to the smelters in Taubaté or Parati”
the care was taken to choose the interviewees individually
“We were less concerned in having a large number of informants than with the value of a single record of high quality”
“We had to walk a lot and talk with the largest number possible of inhabitants of the place
always keeping the institutions like the city hall
the church and the government agricultural post at a distance”
they would send us people who spoke ‘wrong’
but who had some schooling and used the slang picked up from the TV”
There were countless interviews before closing in on names like the people from Minas Gerais like José Felipe dos Santos
What they found left made the researchers jaws drop
“We caught traces that we never imagined to exist”
“Part of the wealth of the research is finding people who live without running or sewage and suffer from vital problems already solved in the cities
“It is an encounter with a kind of Brazilian that urban life would regard as the past
The team’s preliminary work began in 1997
with the mapping out and selection of the localities
and the fieldwork stretched out through last year
The footwork part of the project ends on February 28th this year
but the analysis and tabulation of the data
findings ranged from obsolete words to pronunciations with a São Paulo heritage in the territories of Minas Gerais
“They must all have been incorporated after the expansion of the bandeirantes”
There are forgotten terms like “mamparra” (pretending)
caught from the mouth of José Pedro de Oliveira
Typical 17th century pronunciations like “tchapéu” (the word means hat and the standard pronunciation is shapaw but the bandeirantes pronunciantion is chapew) – tchuva (rain
The standard pronunciation is shoova and the bandeirante is choova)” or the nasal diphthong [õ] for [ãw]
and even today are heard in the north of Portugal
can be found in the hinterland of Mato Grosso
In the south of Minas and hinterland of São Paulo
expressions are to be found like “dá uma esmolna pol’amor de deus” [ give alms for the love of God]
in which today’s “esmola” used to be “eleemosyna”
there is “demudar” used instead of “mudar” [change or move]
and instead of “possuir” [possess]
the preference for “pessuir” or “pessuido”
The likewise obsolete “despois” [after
educated usage in the 15th and 16th centuries
used in the 17th century as an alternative to “perguntar”
From the archaic Portuguese of the 13th century to the mid-16th century are such forms as “quaje” or “quage” (now “quase” [almost])
“quige” (“quis” [wanted])
“fige” (“fiz” [did])
such as in “mensonha” (which goes back to the 13th century)
and “mentireiro” (Gil Vicente)
synonyms of “mentira” [lie] and “mentiroso” [lier]
still punctuate the speech of the backlands
preserved by the informants of Bandeirante Philology
some of the subprojects of the central theme are already starting to be published
with interesting results for the specialists
is to show that an ancient layer of language survives in other points of the country as an inheritor of colonial São Paulo
“Everything leads to believe that the language that went there came from São Paulo”
“The fact is that there are historical marks of a language along the trails of the gold expeditions that set off from São Paulo
running along the old paths of the Indians and opening up others”
The language of the period is a problem for those researching the bandeirantes
there is no exhaustive description of the language spoken in the 17th century
the Portuguese used by the bandeirantes is still full of mysteries
Tupi (indigenous language) reigned during Brazil’s first centuries
The colonizers only imposed themselves on the coast in the 17th century
The most Portuguese of the frontiersmen had to use a mixed language
called the indigenous Brazilian or general language
it is believed that only two out of every five inhabitants of the city of São Paulo spoke Portuguese
in Elementos de Filologia Românica [Elements of Romance Philology]
in the mid-18th century the language in common was still Tupi: only one third of the population used Portuguese
“Indian women married with white men were excluded from learning to read and write
but their children were exposed to the mother tongue
And the bandeirantes needed to be bilingual to carry on their business”
The project to redeem the traces of language left along the route of the bandeirantes can be a decisive step in the reconstitution of the language
“The history of the ancient language is being written now
“The subject has to be surrounded in various manners
through the notaries’ documents and the vestiges found in today’s speech”
The documents found by Megale’s team are revealing as to the condition of the language of the period
“There is no other language but Portuguese in the documents
an indication that the bandeirantes were predominant
There were signatures of the ‘entrants’ and transcriptions of their speech by the notaries
The very term “bandeirante” is controversial
Documents confirm that they used not to go under that name
The movement of going into the backlands was called “outfit”
“journey” or “troop”
It only acquired the term “bandeirante” in the 19th century
on the initiative of historians and writers

In March, Notícias da TV reported Band had sold at least R$120 million (US$23.5 million) in advertising for its Formula One coverage this year
“Formula One has always had a significant presence in Brazil and an illustrious history associated with the country so it’s fantastic that through these deals
we’re able to make the sport as widely available to as many fans as possible,” said Ian Holmes
director of media rights and content creation at Formula One
“We are delighted to be working with Band for a further term and continue the impressive growth that we witnessed last year and are able to combine their free-to-air coverage

“Formula One is the main sport product of Grupo Bandeirantes,” said Denis Gavazzi
sports director of Grupo Bandeirantes de Comunicação
“I believe that the continuation of the partnership between Band and Formula One is the result of the good work done from last year until now
“It is important to emphasise that Band and Formula One are partners in Brazil and will always work together for the growth of the category in our country.”
added: “Motorsports represent one of Claro’s key marketing assets
positioning our products and services around performance
He continued: “We are now launching F1 TV Pro streaming service
reinforcing our position as the largest content hub in Latin America.”

Along with the help of the North Carolina-based Land Cruiser shop, TLC 4×4
had long admired Toyota’s “Bandeirante” version of the classic FJ Land Cruiser
this unique package option was produced from 1968-2001 but was never made available to buyers within the United States
But all that green grass down in Brazil isn’t just meant for grazing beef
So Ward struck an exclusive deal with Toyota
This allowed him to import several Bandeirante bodies directly from the Brazilian auto maker’s factory
You know how the turtle in the Galapagos evolved and was its own unique thing because it was so isolated
well that’s what happened to the Bandeirante over the years
This vehicle really represents a very rare moment in time and is one of less than a half dozen that I built and the only FJ43 that I ever built for the public in this manner.—Jonathan Ward
this overhauled FJ43 is actually a stretched 1965 FJ40 chassis
Inside, you’ll find it packing a modified center dash, complete with a sheet metal component from a 1983 FJ40. A touch that is strikingly similar to that found in the exceedingly rare 1983 US-spec dash. this piece comes loaded with a custom clock, gauges, Vintage Air climate controls
Standing in contrast are the reupholstered seating surfaces. Heat-laminated carbon fiber sheets rest beside top-grain leather from German upholstery specialist Helcor-Leder-Tec
and a bevy of refreshed OE internal touches
fuel-injected V8 powers this ultra-rare Toyota FJ
As for the rest of this unique Toyota FJ43 Bandeirante
it is a bit of an ICON 4×4 poster child
and a cable-actuated parking brake start things off
These are followed by upgraded calipers and rotors
The engine is an older GM Ram Jet 5.7-liter fuel-injected V8. A motor that has been mated to a modded Toyota H-55 5-speed manual transmission. A split-case, 19-spline transfer case handles loads out back. There’s also a beefier front sway bar, ICON “Old School” aluminum wheels
and a tempered exhaust for what is referred to as a “more user-friendly driving experience in modern conditions.”
it’s one of one and it represents a very unique moment in time because of what it represents for my company
Bandeirante’s were only produced in Brazil
ICON and TLC were only able to acquire a few before they were discontinued
and this is the only one I built in this fashion.—Jonathan Ward
The chassis pictured here is a particularly special specimen
as it is one of the company’s most beloved projects
Jonathan Ward recently reacquired the vehicle since having built it over two decades ago
Being that the commissioned project had no place in a recently downsized collection
it only made sense that the FJ would be returned to its creator
While this vehicle may be available for purchase at some point
all of ICON 4×4’s FJ builds begin with an online configurator
Just don’t expect it to be an ultra-rare Bandeirante edition from Brazil

ICON 4×4 is a well-known name in the automotive world, with the Los Angeles shop objectively standing as one of the most renowned classic truck restomod builders currently in operation
are familiar with how Jonathan Ward started the company — an endeavor that can ultimately be traced back to a single phone call from Toyota President (and master driver) Akio Toyoda
After hearing about Ward’s meticulous restorations of vintage FJ models
he gave Ward access to a slew of rare and original FJ parts and bodies and tasked him with building three different examples
In addition to being used to help design the new FJ Cruiser in 2007
these preproduction concept vehicles would lay the foundation for what would become ICON’s signature builds
Riding on ICON’s own forged aluminum volcanic-finished wheels
this early build has also been bestowed with numerous performance upgrades in the form of overhauled axles fore and aft
The Toyota’s custom interior features a modified dash off of an ’83 FJ40
The cabin has also been treated to a vintage climate control system and front and rear seats that are upholstered with carbon fiber sheet heat laminated to top grain leather
Other additions include a cable-actuated parking brake
The project’s finishing touch came in the form of a grayish-blue paint job that
While this special early Bandeirante proto-project isn’t for sale

The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) will continue to develop its Fight Pass over-the-top (OTT) product for the Brazilian market but does not expect a full-scale direct-to-consumer (DTC) shift in the country
The mixed martial arts (MMA) promotion launched UFC Fights Pass this month to coincide with the UFC 283 event in Rio de Janeiro
marking its first return to Brazil since 2018
localised Portuguese language content and a library of historical events
The UFC also signed a broadcast partnership with Brazilian network Bandeirantes last August for free-to-air (FTA) distribution of select live fight nights and original content
but believes the DTC focus reflects the viewing preferences of consumers
96 per cent of its fans in Brazil watch its content via digital platforms
“The Brazilian market is a more mature market
a very discerning and sophisticated market,” David Shaw
“We made this decision because we felt we needed to really progress our delivery of our content via technological means
increased delivery of content through digital platforms
We needed to bring to the market a more compelling price that was more competitive with other streaming services and what we believe was appropriate for the Brazilian fanbase
it allows us to create not only a live event transmission and production that we control
the proper stories that Brazilian fans want to consume
“We wanted to really adapt to the times and the technological progression
Adoption of smartphones and social media and digital platforms in Brazil is almost as progressive as anywhere else around the world.”
“One of the big differences that you’ve got with combat sports is the pay-per-view element of it,” said Endeavor Streaming president Fred Santarpia
there’s much more of a hockey stick for traffic and subscriber growth for those big ticket events
the more social promotion there is from the talent on the card
the bigger the event and the bigger the fight is going to be
it’s being ready for that hockey stick of demand where you go from
That is something that we find very specific to combat sports in particular.”
The UFC claims to have 50 million fans in Brazil and the promotion is stacked with fighters from the country
the UFC’s president Dana White said Fight Pass would “take our business to the next level”
highlighting Brazil as “one of our biggest and fastest growing markets”
“We need a partner that’s going to invest in local programming when we’re not there and we need a partner that’s got a variety of different media assets
“For [Bandeirantes], they’ve got a number of key sports properties. They’ve helped build Formula One in Brazil to be a truly marquee property across the country
That investment that they made in F1 made us confident and comfortable that we can work alongside them
“Going 100 per cent direct-to-consumer might make some sense in some regions
But I really do feel like you need that institutional support.”
it’s not an either or decision anymore,” added Santarpia
“[Linear TV and streaming] are not mutually exclusive
“The most savvy operators are looking at how they improve their overall average revenue per user by employing a variety of media models across a variety of distribution channels
they’re putting those things together for a holistic media strategy
“That’s how we see it generally playing out over the next couple of years.”
For all its Fight Pass ambitions in Brazil, the UFC is unlikely to take the product into other Latin American territories any time soon, preferring to continue working with its LATAM broadcast partners ESPN and Fox Sports
“I think we’re more of an emerging sport throughout other areas in Latin America
probably more progressed in Mexico,” said Shaw
“One very important consideration is where you’re at in the development of the sport in that particular country
“Brazil is much more mature than many of the other markets in Latin America. So, for the moment, it makes sense to get the broad reach that we get from ESPN and Fox Sports LATAM.”
With Margaret Thatcher and Rand Paul as inspiration
the Free Brazil Movement is among the leading groups taking a stand against president Dilma Rousseff
Penetrating deep into the country’s vast interior on epic raids for people to enslave and mineral wealth to plunder
Brazil’s bandeirantes massively expanded the frontiers of the young state in the 16th and 17th centuries
Today the legacy of these pioneers remains divisive
but their profound contribution to both Brazil’s continental dimensions and history of violence remains indisputable
And for the members of the libertarian Movimento Brasil Livre (MBL)
the legend of the bandeirantes is a political inspiration
and they turned Brazil into the biggest country in Latin America,” said Renan Santos
they were not a great example in terms of human rights.”
Santos and a few dozen other activists will set off from the Praça Panamericana in western São Paulo on a 1,000km (621-mile) walk to Brasília
following one of the routes of the bandeirantes
Along the way, they will pass through towns and cities spreading the gospel of economic liberalism. And when they finally arrive in Brasília, they plan to hold a mass rally and present a simple message to congress: impeach President Dilma Rousseff.
“It’ll be a journey,” said Santos, 31. “Like Lord of the Rings.”
Read moreSince the president’s narrow re-election in October 2014, various activist groups have sprung up across Brazil to protest against the government over a massive corruption scandal at the state-run oil company, Petrobras
have links with the country’s main political opposition and business elite
“Vem Pra Rua and Movimento Brasil Livre are the two most significant groups,” Esther Solano
a professor of international relations at the Federal University of São Paulo who has studied the protesters
whereas Movimento Brasil Livre brings together younger
An opinion poll published last week showed 63% of Brazilians would support impeachment proceedings against Rousseff
though the survey also revealed deep ignorance about what that would mean
Though the MBL’s main demand is impeachment
it distinguishes itself from the other protest groups by claiming to offer the ultimate solution to Brazil’s corruption problems: economic freedom
Kataguiri, like Santos, is a university dropout who has dedicated himself to spreading the message of the Austrian School of Economics in a country that has an overwhelmingly statist approach to economic policy-making. A fan of Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek, Kataguiri also speaks excellent English that he learned “from video games”. He describes Margaret Thatcher as a reference point for his movement and Rand Paul as the US politician who best represents his values.
the left is still seen as cool by young people,” he said
“We want to destroy this idea that if you defend free markets then you’re an old man who is asking for a dictatorship.”
the atmosphere in the MBL’s São Paulo office is more hipster startup than Frodo’s shire
Half a dozen young activists sit around a large black conference table
poring over their laptops as they attempt to finalise the route
secure provisions and mobilise their supporters
The son of a metal worker from the interior of the state
Kataguiri denied claims the MBL had any wealthy backers
stating that it raised money from donations and selling T-shirts and stickers
“The government and some sectors of the press say that we are financed by rich people
We would have no problem in being financed by rich people.”
the Free Brazil Movement has little contact with the main opposition Brazilian Social Democracy Party (PSDB)
The MBL convoy plans to reach Brasília on 27 May
after a 33-day hike through the states of São Paulo
The group then hopes to rally 100,000 Brazilians to demand congress begin the president’s impeachment
“We can choose to go home or we can choose the Ukrainian way
We are talking about keeping up the pressure.”
the wave of public anger that fuelled the recent protests may be starting to diminish
“The last demonstration against the government [on 12 April] only attracted significant numbers in São Paulo,” she said
Now political leaders from the main parties are speaking out against impeachment
“We’ve been doing crazy things from the start,” Kataguiri said
“We have the will to take our message to Brasília.”

The fight against figures linked to slavery has found new momentum since 2020 and the removal of statues in England
By Bruno Meyerfeld (Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) Correspondent)
The symbolic removal of a statue of Borba Gato during the Beija-Flor samba school parade at the Rio de Janeiro Carnival
EDUARDO HOLLANDA / BEIJA-FLOR On Saturday
the sun rises over the large statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro as the last floats take off on the Sambadrome parade track
the final float to parade on this long night
chose the fight against racism as their theme
discrimination in the favelas and the murder of George Floyd in May 2020
the public sees several bronze-colored statues standing on a float
slavocrats and propagators of racism," proclaims Beija-Flor
they are symbolically dismantled while the crowd cheers
Everyone here can recognize Admiral Pedro Alvares Cabral
the "discoverer" of Brazil and the widely-considered racist writer Monteiro Lobato
symbolically placed higher than the others
has been stirring up passions in the tropics
a zealous expression and a musket in his hand
Manuel de Borba Gato (1649-1718) is one of the most controversial figures in Brazilian history
Considered a national hero for a long time
his opponents loudly calling for the removal of statues and monuments of him
All this in a global context of "cancel culture," where public spaces have become battlefields

which flies inter-island services in the Cook Islands
is in the midst of a fleet modernisation as it prepares to receive delivery of another Saab 340B+ turboprop
The South Pacific airline received the first of two Saab 340B+ aircraft from Japan Air Commuter
as well as ramped up charter and medevac operations on its Cessna Citation II business jet last year
The 34-seat Saab 340B+ aircraft were bought through Maine-based C&L Aerospace
Their main advantages over Air Rarotonga’s previous 340A model aircraft are the newer GE CT7-9B engines and larger tailspan
which provide better hot and high performance
Air Rarotonga flies the Saab 340B+ from mainly from Rarotonga to Aitutaki
the Cook Islands’ second largest population centre
Aitutaki has a population of under two thousand and lies 264km north of the airline’s base in Rarotonga
Smith says Air Rarotonga also owns two 15-seat Embraer EMB-110P1 Bandeirantes
which fly passengers and cargo to crushed coral airstrips on smaller islands such as Manihiki and Mangaia
These routes function as a public service and typically fly in a 10-seat configuration to maximise loads
The airline has no plans to replace the Bandeirantes even though they are about 30 years old
The 15-seat size is currently ideal for low-traffic routes
and the aircraft are well-supported by Embraer despite their age
is mostly confined to the main islands of Rarotonga and Aitutaki
This drove the airline to add the additional Saab 340B+ as well as the Cessna Citation jet
which Smith adds is poised to take on more charter work
Cook Islands visitor arrivals are near an all-time high of almost 200,000 a year
While the island nation has seen steady increases since 2013 and more visitors coming from as far as the US and Europe
Smith says further growth depends on whether the hospitality industry can keep up
I get the feeling that there just aren’t many new projects coming up,” Smith says

The Brazilian air force has performed the first flight of an Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante transport to have been equipped with modern avionics equipment
Designated by the service as the C/P-95, the aircraft has had several new systems installed by Israeli firm Elbit Systems' Brazilian subsidiary, Aeroeletronica
The work has included the integration of two new multifunction displays per pilot
plus a digital map and replacement communication and navigation equipment
cutting edge avionics systems are destined to meet the high standards of newly manufactured aircraft
specifically in flight safety and mission performance in harsh weather conditions," says Elbit
The Brazilian air force has an active fleet of 96 EMB-110s, as listed in Flightglobal's MiliCAS database
In addition to performing transport duties
the type is also used by the service for tasks including electronic warfare
Powered by two Pratt & Whitney PT6A-34 turboprop engines
the aircraft involved in the recent flight test entered operational use in 1984
"We believe that additional international customers undergoing similar upgrade programmes will follow the Brazilian air force
and will choose to upgrade their fleets with our advanced systems," says Aeroeletronica operational vice-president Vitor Jaime Neves in an Elbit-released statement
Other current operators of the Embraer-built EMB-110 are the air forces of Colombia

Sao Paulo’s Federal Prosecution has opened a process to determine the alleged responsibility of four retired military personnel accused of involvement in six killings and torturing 20 people among which president-elect Dilma Rousseff
In a brief release the prosecution office gave the name of the four military and a captain from the Sao Paulo military police
who allegedly participated of the Bandeirante Operaion under orders from the Second Army between 1969 and 1970
at the peak of the military dictatorship (1964/1985) repression against the political opposition to the regime
as part of the Bandeirante Operation are responsible for the murder of six people among which dissident Virgilio Gomes da Silva who was considered the leader of the armed group that kidnapped during two days the United States ambassador in Brazil
Among the torture victims mentioned in the process figures Dilma Rousseff who at the time was arrested for over two years in connection with the armed groups resisting the military dictatorship`
President-elect Rousseff has admitted having belonged to different clandestine organizations such as the National Liberation Command
Palmares Armed Revolutionary Vanguard (VAR-Palmares) and the Workers Policies (Polop)
However she points out that she was never involved in any armed action
The Prosecution office revealed that Bandeirantes Operation helped the Brazilian military to test the effective unification under an only command all repression tasks and torture of dissidents
which until that moment had been split among different Army and Military Police organizations
The operation considered successful gave birth to the Domestic Defence Centres special information operation units
which centralized all repression operations beginning 1970 until the return of democracy in 1985
should be included in an investigation since it supported both Operation Bandeirantes and the government-based organization that followed--DOI-CODI
See Huggins' book Political Policing (Duke
”President-elect Rousseff has admitted having belonged to different clandestine organizations such as the National Liberation Command
However she points out that she was never involved in any armed action.” Oh yes
Those were the organizations building churches all over Brazil

Brazil’s Minister of Defence has said that his government will donate aircraft to Cape Verde for maritime patrol duties
as it strengthens defence cooperation with the archipelago
Brazilian defence minister Celso Amorim met his counterpart Jorge Tolentino in Rio de Janeiro last week
where he pledged to strengthen cooperation between the two countries in the areas of defence and security
The meeting was attended by the commanders of the Brazilian navy
army and air force as well as Cape Verde’s director of national defence and commander of the Coast Guard
Tolentino expressed interest in obtaining Brazilian expertise
particularly with regard to maritime safety and search and rescue
which the EMB-110 Bandeirantes would be used for
Due to its important location in the Atlantic
including drug and people trafficking and illegal fishing
“There is a strong willingness of the government of my country to fight these organizations,” said Tolentino
stressing the need for support from countries like Brazil
In October last year Cape Verde police seized about 1.5 tonnes of pure cocaine worth about US$100 million in one of the biggest drug busts in the region
West Africa became a transit point in the drugs trade between Latin American producers and European users because of the porous borders of some of the countries in the region and weak security apparatus
The UNODC estimates that up to 100 tonnes of cocaine may have been trafficked through the region in 2009 and that the value of trafficking flows exceeds the gross domestic product of some West African countries
said that piracy was spreading across the mid-Atlantic and that Brazil wanted to prevent its arrival in its waters
He said it was a possibility that Brazil would send ships to patrol the West African coast
He added that it was important for the two countries to share maritime traffic information and that Brazil may train Cape Verde coast guard personnel
Another possibility discussed was sending Brazilian patrol aircraft for Exercises off Cape Verde
In January Cape Verde strengthend its Coast Guard by commissioning a new 51 metre long Stan Patrol SPA 5009 patrol vessel from Damen shipyard
According to the IISS’s The Military Balance 2011
the Cape Verde Coast Guard has three patrol and coastal combatant vessels in service
including the 360 ton Kondor I patrol craft commissioned in 1970
The archipelago of nine inhabited islands has no navy
it was agreed that Brazil would provide scientific and technical support to Cape Verde in the survey of the continental shelf later this year
Brazil has performed similar work in Namibia and Angola
The Brazilian navy will send a delegation to the archipelago later this year to discuss this and other matters
