President Jair Bolsonaro is considering bringing back the Ministry of Public Security, which merged with the Ministry of Justice under the authority of Sergio Moro. Bolsonaro mentioned the possible move at a meeting at the National Council for Public Security.

According to the president, state secretaries pled for the return of the ministry, which merged with the Ministry of Justice in 2019.

The topic, however, was not on the agenda of the secretaries' meeting before their meeting with Bolsonaro.

. . .

The Federal police follows up on investigations into Flávio Bolsonaro and the murder of councilwoman Marielle Franco. Also, Moro would not be able to point to the falling homicides in the country as a result of his ministry.
