Notarial act reveals council meeting that approved Tuma’s temporary suspension at Corinthians | OneFootball

A notarial act detailing last week’s Corinthians Deliberative Council meeting, which approved the temporary suspension of president Romeu Tuma Júnior, circulated on Monday among supporters and councillors.

Blog do Paulinho reports that the public document, prepared by notary Beatriz Mollica de Carvalho, runs to five pages. She noted she was at Parque São Jorge at Tuma’s invitation, he missed the session for health reasons, and that the top table comprised Maria Ângela Ocampos, first secretary of the Council, Osmar Stabile, president of the diretoria, Denis Piovesan, second secretary, and Miguel Marques e Silva, president of the Conselho de Orientação, Cori.

The act records that Ocampos opened proceedings under article 17 of the Council’s internal rules and asked non-councillors to leave. The notary continued listening from the theatre antechamber, allowing her to log the exchanges.

Ocampos then deemed Stabile’s convocation invalid under the statute and internal rules, citing the absence of an Ethics Commission opinion on a councillor’s case, and closed the sitting. An argument followed when councillor Rubens Gomes alleged she was conflicted because she faced an Ethics and Discipline case, and she asked him to ground that claim in the statute. No reply from Gomes was recorded.

Outside, Ocampos told a reporter she left after shutting what she considered an irregular meeting amid shouting from Gomes.

The meeting later resumed with second secretary Piovesan chairing, and Stabile opened the vote on Tuma’s removal. The act records 115 votes in favour, 15 against, and seven abstentions.

The document is already with prosecutor Cássio Conserino, who has asked the São Paulo Public Prosecutor’s Office to open a civil inquiry to assess a possible judicial intervention. In two filings, one before and one after the meeting, he said the gathering showed strong signs of irregularity under the current statute.
