MANAUS – The delegate of the Civil Police of Amazonas Saulo Rodrigues Leotty is the man who appears pointing the gun during a traffic fight in a video that viralized in social networks on Wednesday, 1st. The episode was recorded at Avenida Brasil, Compensa neighborhood, West Zone of Manaus.

In the video, the delegate shows to be angry and gets out of the car with the gun drawn; he goes up to the man with the gun in hand and pushes him against another vehicle. A nearby woman tries to stop the conflict.

With a monthly salary of R$ 32.380, 84, being R$ 21.306,93 net, Leotty is assigned as duty delegate at the 6th DIP, located in Cidade Nova, North Zone of Manaus. Saulo integrates, since 2014, the Civil Police of Amazonas servers.

Before joining the team of the 6th DIP, Saulo served as a delegate, in the countryside of Amazonas, in the cities of Tabatinga, Benjamin Constant and Atalaia do Norte. Leotty was also a duty delegate at the Specialized Police Station for Combating Crimes against Women (DECCM).

He started his public life as an administrative assistant at the Health Secretariat of Manaus (Semsa), and then worked as an administrative technician at the Federal Attorney’s Office in Roraima.

The CENARIUM Magazine’s reporting team contacted the Amazonas Civil Police that informed only “that the delegate’s conduct will be investigated by the competent sectors of the institution”.

Incentive?

In April, decrees issued by President Jair Bolsonaro came into effect with the aim of reducing bureaucracy and expanding access to firearms and ammunition in the country. One of the amended decrees was the 9.845/2019, which allows professionals the right to carry weapons, such as the Armed Forces, police officers, and members of the judiciary and the Public Ministry, to acquire up to six weapons of restricted use, the limit before was four weapons.
