MP wants to hear player Bruno Henrique in an inquiry about illegal bets

The Public Prosecution Service of the Federal District and Territories (MPDFT) wants to hear Flamengo striker Bruno Henrique to complete a Inquiry that investigates illegal bets in the 2023 Brazilian Championship.

As determined by CNN there is the accusation that Bruno Henrique “act deliberately” during a dispute against Santos on November 1, 2023, to be punished by the referee with a card to enable family members, who were aware of this intention in advance, to earn money through sports bets.

The MPDFT survey occurs in parallel to an investigation by the Federal Police, also on the subject. The PF plans to complete the case within 30 days, according to what was determined by the CNN with sources.

In November last year, Bruno Henrique was the target of an operation of Gaeco-MPDFT and the Federal Police that aimed to fulfill 12 search and seizure warrants in the cities of Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Belo Horizonte (MG), Vespasiano (MG), Lagoa Santa (MG) and Ribeirão das Neves (MG). At the time, in addition to the athlete, his brother, a sister -in -law, a cousin and others nearby were also the target of the PF.

Investigators are now four new gamblers who would also have bet on a yellow card from Bruno Henrique, in the match against Santos.

Investigations point out that knowing that the player would provoke at least one of the cards, his relatives created, on the eve of the match, accounts in virtual bets and made guesses focusing specifically on the athlete’s punishment, thus obtaining improper gains. This same standard of bets directed at the perspective that Bruno Henrique would receive a card during the match held in Brasilia was identified in the accounts of the other investigated.

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) even produced a statement with reports that indicated an unusual volume and a concentration of bets made on some platforms providing that Bruno Henrique would receive a card during the match with Santos.

CBF statements also reported that some of the user accounts were very recent, some open on the eve of the match, and that they made a single bet, with maximum values, precisely in the possibility of Bruno Henrique being punished by card.
