PF Rejects Second Plea Deal for Daniel Vorcaro Amid New Revelations Involving Alcolumbre and PT

The Brazilian Federal Police (PF) rejected a second plea bargain proposal from Banco Master owner Daniel Vorcaro on June 11, 2026, citing a lack of evidence. According to reporting from O Globo and Folha de S.Paulo, the PF has notified the Supreme Federal Court (STF) of the decision, while Vorcaro’s defense team currently awaits a position from the Prosecutor General’s Office (PGR) to determine their next legal steps.

Why did the Federal Police reject Daniel Vorcaro’s plea bargain?

The Federal Police denied the second attempt at a cooperation agreement because they found a lack of supporting evidence for the claims presented. O Globo reports that the PF explicitly communicated this lack of proof as the basis for the rejection.

Following the decision, the PF notified the STF, as the court maintains jurisdiction over the proceedings. This marks the second time the agency has turned down a proposal from the Banco Master executive.

Which political figures are named in the allegations?

While the PF rejected the proposal on evidentiary grounds, the contents of the plea bargain involve high-level political accusations. Estadão reports that Vorcaro’s proposal included allegations of bribery targeting Davi Alcolumbre.

Additionally, VEJA reports that the revelations include a new chapter involving the Workers’ Party (PT) in the state of Bahia. These claims were part of the package Vorcaro offered in exchange for a reduced sentence or legal leniency.

What is the current legal status of the case?

The case now hinges on the reaction of the Prosecutor General’s Office. According to O Globo, Vorcaro’s defense is waiting for the PGR to weigh in on the proposal that the Federal Police already rejected.

Under Brazilian law, the PGR can provide a different assessment of the evidence than the PF, which may influence whether the defense attempts a third proposal or pursues a different legal strategy.

The contrast in reporting across outlets highlights two different angles of the development. Folha de S.Paulo and O Globo focused on the procedural failure of the plea bargain and the notifications sent to the STF. In contrast, VEJA and Estadão focused on the political implications of the specific names mentioned in the rejected documents.
