Police Investigates Group Suspected of Defrauding Condominiums with Solar Energy Financing, Using Fake Minutes and Account Fraud to Divert Bank Funds.

Police authorities are investigating a group suspected of committing frauds in residential condominiums through financing intended for the installation of solar energy systems. The investigations indicate the involvement of residents and service providers, who allegedly acted in a coordinated manner to obtain loans from financial institutions.

According to the investigation, the projects were presented to the condominiums as an alternative for cost reduction through so-called “green energy.” However, part of the documents used to facilitate the financing was allegedly forged, including condominium assembly minutes.

Fake Minutes and Misuse of Management Power

According to information gathered by the police, those under investigation exploited their management power within the condominiums to enable the scheme. Condominium minutes were reportedly manipulated or created without the knowledge of the majority of residents, with the aim of authorizing contracts and financing for solar energy projects.

Adulterated Accounts Helped Conceal the Diversion

The investigations also indicate that the group adopted strategies to conceal the scam for an extended period. Among them was the alteration of water and electricity bills for the common areas of the condominiums.

These altered documents simulated the regular payment of the financing installments linked to the solar energy projects. The practice reportedly occurred over several months, without other residents noticing any irregularities in the condominium finances.

Search Warrants Result in Seizure of Documents and Funds

During the execution of search and seizure warrants, the police collected various materials that may help clarify the operation of the scheme. Among the seized items are contracts related to solar energy installation, financial and administrative documents, as well as jewelry.

Two Rolex watches and approximately US$ 10,000 in cash were also seized. All materials will be analyzed to identify the origin of the funds and assess the damage caused to the condominiums and financial institutions.

Suspected Operations in Other Northeastern States

Authorities do not rule out the possibility that the same group has implemented the scheme in other condominiums, both in Recife and in cities in other northeastern states. Evidence gathered during the investigation suggests a similar pattern of operation in different residential developments.

The police continue to investigate the case to identify all victims, map the extent of the frauds involving solar energy, and hold those involved criminally responsible, as the investigations progress.
