Former Brazilian minister of science, technology and innovation and former president of the Chamber of Deputies, Aldo Rebelo has urged the U.S. to disclose information from the 1996 Varginha UFO crash, according to the New York Post.
“Now, if the United States decided to declassify more files, it is natural that Brazil would also offer its classified documents about the Varginha episode and others,” said Rebelo to the Post. “These are events related to a cooperation in matters of intelligence and defense matters, specifically in investigating these phenomena between Brazil and the United States. This cooperation has been revealed in part.”
The Varginha incident, long considered Brazil’s version of Roswell, included civilians encountering an odd, bipedal creature with glowing red eyes. A week prior to the alleged incident, residents reported strange lights and a cigar-shaped UAP in the skies. According to military personnel and news reports, two beings ( 1 alive and the other dead) were allegedly held captive by Brazil’s military before being transferred to the U.S. government. At the time of the incident Rebelo served as a federal deputy.
“The 1996 Varginha Incident in Brazil underwent a serious military investigation,” Rebelo said to the Post. There are statements from military personnel, and from doctors who participated. In part, these are public records and others are maintained classified.”
