The then minister of the body, Gonçalves Dias, appointed by Lula, also appears in the images, but does not interact with the coup plotters.
Government supporters called Dias, who is a retired army general, a traitor.
Boy… Cameras show Minister Gonçalves Dias (GSI) and military remnants of General Heleno’s office offering water and opening the doors to Bolsonarist terrorists in the Planalto Palace during attacks on January 8th. @FlavioDino Dismissal of the traitor URGENT! pic.twitter.com/4s1rQuWBDo

And he resigned a few hours after the images were released.

Ricardo Cappelli, executive secretary of the Ministry of Justice, took over the position on an interim basis.
By order of the President @LulaOficial I temporarily take over the GSI with balance, firmness and the usual commitment to Brazil.

PT President Gleisi Hoffmann said the GSI agents who helped the invaders were holdovers from the Bolsonaro government.
Filmed agents collaborating with Planalto invaders were from the Bolsonaro government, from General Heleno’s GSI, who had not yet been replaced. General Gonçalves Dias leaves, but investigations continue. It’s no use coming with a frame: Invaders, terrorists and scammers were…

According to Folha, Lula was already irritated with Gonçalves Dias for having requested access to images of the invasion several times from the general and having his requests denied.

The opposition took advantage of the episode to reiterate its requests for the opening of a CPMI on January 8th. There are congressmen even asking for Lula’s impeachment. Virtually all tweets with greater engagement about the case are right-wing politicians and influencers.
It explains why the Government is DESPERATE so that the CPI on the 8th does not take place. The GSI was there. And nothing did.
Invaders had open doors, were greeted and even given water. BIZARRE! The evidence is there! It’s a SCANDAL! https://t.co/HXuiKYbjCH

In view of the CNN revelations, I submitted a request to summon Lula’s GSI Minister to explain to the Senate Security Committee his actions on January 8 and the consequences. https://t.co/t80Dhpa5df — Sergio Moro (@SF_Moro) April 19, 2023
