According to the official, the weapons were stored in the Institutional Security Cabinet, in the Planalto Palace, headquarters of the Brazilian Presidency, one of the three targets of the violent demonstrations that occurred in Brasilia.

Pimienta showed in a video the empty boxes in which the weapons intended for the use of members of the presidential security were kept.



The Brazilian government official assured that all those responsible for the criminal action will be identified and punished with the rigor of the law so that democracy does not suffer this type of violence again. "Zero tolerance for terrorism," Pimenta said.

For his part, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, Wadih Damous, who accompanied Pimienta on his tour, described the abduction as "very serious" and the fact that violent protesters possess lethal weapons, of which they were aware.



In his opinion, the assailants "had information" that weapons were kept there and knew "what they should take."
