O plenário do Senado decidiu manter a prisão do senador Delcídio do Amaral (PT-MS). Em votação aberta, os senadores decidiram que o líder do governo deverá ser mantido preso por 59 votos contra 13 e 1 abstenção.

Delcídio está preso na carceragem da Polícia Federal (PF) em Brasília após decisão unânime da segunda turma do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF). Ele foi levado para a PF hoje pela manhã, na 21ª fase da Operação Lava Jato, quando também foram presos seu chefe de gabinete Diogo Ferreira e o presidente do banco BTG Pactual, André Esteves.

A prisão foi embasada por uma gravação apresentada pelo filho do ex-diretor da Petrobras, Nestor Cerveró, em que o senador oferece R$ 50 mil por mês para a família dele e mais um plano de fuga para que Cerveró deixasse o país. O objetivo de Delcídio era evitar que o ex-diretor fizesse acordo de delação premiada com o Ministério Público Federal.
