US EditionInterpol Chases Brazilian Lawmaker Zambelli in Judicial Crackdown
- In May 2025, Brazilian congresswoman Carla Zambelli was convicted and handed a decade-long prison term, leading her to flee to Europe after losing her parliamentary seat.
- Her conviction stemmed from a Supreme Court decision finding that she directed a cyber intrusion in 2023 against the National Justice Council, working alongside hacker Walter Delgatti.
- Zambelli claimed political persecution by Brazil’s judiciary, refused to return from the US where she may seek asylum, and called the country a dictatorship.
- On June 3, 2025, Prosecutor General Paulo Gonet formally requested that Interpol add her to its Red Notice list to facilitate her arrest abroad, as well as to enable asset freezes and revoke her passport.
- Her legal team appealed the conviction, scheduled for review on June 6, 2025, while her case highlights tensions affecting Brazil’s political stability.
