translated from Spanish: Despite the convictions, freedom of Lula could arrive in April

Luiz Inazio Lula Da Silva was again sentenced to prison by judge Gabriela Hardt, substitute Sergio Moro in the Lava Jato cause, then as it passed to the Ministry of Ju sticia of Jair Bolsonaro, who went second to the sentence the PT candidate. Hardt blamed Lula of the crimes of corruption and money laundering and issued him a sentence of 12 years and 11 months, it is added to that issued Moro – and the Federal Regional Court judges increased N ° 4 – and why is stopped now. 

But the condition of former Brazilian President detainee could change in the coming months: the judges of the Supreme Court in April vote on the continuity of the prison for those with conviction in the second instance and appeal. Both the case of the Department in Guarujá – which is detained since April–and today are actionable cases. Even the condemnation of Hardt is in the first instance, so if the leader had been released and it appealed, not would have stopped it. 
In December of last year, TSF Marco Aurelio judge, issued a ruling that all detainees with appealable judgments in second instance are released. Thus generated some enthusiasm around the release of Lula, which faded quickly with the rejection of the President of the Court, Antonio Dias Tóffoli.Esa discussion will happen again in April, although hopes are many: a year ago, the same judges by 6 votes 5 they dictated the fate of Lula and Brazil, paving the arrival of Bolsonaro to power. It is the present Government, via Moro who wants to institutionalize by law that all persons convicted in the second instance to start serving his sentence immediately: A law Lula?
