This Friday afternoon (25), the Civil Police arrested a man who collected firearms for restricted use by the Armed Forces and Nazi items in the municipality of Cordeirópolis, in the State of São Paulo, Brazil after a complaint was filed at the police station.

The action was carried out by teams from the Cordeirópolis Police Station and the General Investigations Police Station (DIG) from Limeira, in the State of São Paulo, Brazil.

Weapons, ammunition with restricted calibers of the Armed Forces, deactivated explosives, brooches, helmets, flags, gas cylinders and books are also included in the collection, which was located in a warehouse and seized pursuant to a court order.

President Jair Bolsonaro’s decree allowed citizens to buy rifles. The decree changed the classification of weapons for restricted use by the Armed Forces, which became permitted.

The case was being processed by the Judicial Court of Cordeirópolis. The deactivated explosives were loaded with TNT and a bomb disposal team from the Special Reaction Group (GER) was activated.
