- A Supreme Court justice has authorized federal police to probe President Lula’s son, Lulinha, over alleged influence‑peddling tied to a health‑ministry deal for a cannabidiol‑based medication.
- Lula says his son will be treated like any citizen and he won’t interfere, while Lulinha’s lawyer calls the move a “fishing expedition”; authorities say the probe hasn’t been formally opened yet.
- The new inquiry follows an earlier Supreme Court‑authorized probe this year into alleged improper payments linked to the same businessman, increasing legal scrutiny on the president’s family.
