We have what it takes to stop corruption, let’s do it

It was a great privilege and honour to meet and listen to Deltan Dallagnon this past week. Deltan is the lead federal prosecutor in the Car Wash Task Force in Curitiba, in the Southern Brazilian state of Parana. Operation Car Wash was so named because the alleged corruption ring used a currency exchange and money transfer service at the Tower Gas Station and Car Wash in Brazil to move illicit payments. This network of evil is believed to have been spread across at least 11 other countries, mostly in Latin America. To bring to book the shadowy faces behind this grand corruption network, the task fell on the shoulders of Deltan.

He had served with the Public Ministry since 2003 specialising in crimes against the national financial system and money laundering.
