Gilmar sends assurances to Italy about Zambelli's arrest before the new extradition trial

The Supreme Court of Brazil, through Minister Gilmar Mendes, has assured Italy that former Deputy Carla Zambelli would have her rights protected if extradited to Brazil. This comes ahead of an Italian court's upcoming decision on a second extradition request related to Zambelli's 2022 conviction for armed persecution. In May, Italy rejected a previous extradition request tied to Zambelli's conviction for hacking into the National Council of Justice (CNJ) system. The new assurance was sent to the Brazilian Attorney General's Office (AGU), which represents the Brazilian government in the process. The document remains under judicial secrecy at the STF. Zambelli was previously sentenced to five years and three months in prison by the STF plenary for the armed incident in 2022, with nine judges voting against two. However, the first extradition request was denied by the Italian Supreme Court of Cassation due to concerns over the impartiality of Justice Minister Alexandre de Moraes, who presided over the case.
