Ricardo Lewandowski, April 22, 2021

“O modus operandi da 'lava jato' levou a conduções coercitivas, prisões preventivas alongadas, prisões em segunda instância e outras atitudes incompatíveis com o Estado democrático de Direito”

Portal translation: The modus operandi of 'lava jato' led to coercive conduction orders, prolonged pretrial detentions, arrests after second-instance rulings and other actions incompatible with the democratic rule of law

The translation is the portal's; the original text, in Portuguese, is the one that prevails.
