Hundreds of demonstrators took to the streets of Sao Paulo to protest against the Federal Supreme Court decision of transferring all Odebrecht plea bargain testimony related to the corruption case with former president Lula da Silva to the Federal Justice Department in Sao Paulo.

The footage, captured on April 25, shows people walking in the streets of Sao Paulo and burning a doll representing the Federal Supreme Court (STF) in front of the court of justice in Avenida Paulista.

The STF decision has sparked anger among opponents of Lula as it opens a breach for the defense of the former president to annul his conviction.
