Arrest of any of Lula's ministers in 2026?
Market Rules
This event predicts whether any minister serving in President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s administration will be arrested at any time during calendar year 2026. For this market, arrest means being formally detained by law enforcement authorities, regardless of whether the individual is still in office at the time of arrest. The Primary Designated Source (PDS) will be official statements by Brazilian judicial or law enforcement authorities.
If any minister from Lula’s administration is formally arrested during 2026, this market will resolve to "Yes". Otherwise, it will resolve to "No". Investigations, indictments, or questioning without detention will not count. If official records are unclear, the Secondary Confirmation Mechanism (SCM) will rely on consistent reporting from major Brazilian news organizations. Resolution will reflect the substantive act of arrest, not allegations. If a definitive determination cannot be made, Futuur may cancel this market with a public explanation.
Comments
- pedro_brito: My reading is that “Lula’s administration” here means the current administration/mandate (2023–2026) . Therefore, the market should resolve Yes only if a minister from this term is formally arrested during 2026.
