JBS SA is close to completing an internal investigation that may give Brazilian prosecutors additional evidence of wrongdoing as part of a leniency deal in a corruption scandal.
The Sao Paulo-based meat giant and other companies controlled by the billionaire Batista brothers may be ready by September to present results of the independent probe that has collected about 220 terabytes of data from mobile phones and computers and testimony from more than 600 people, according to Emir Calluf Filho, legal and compliance director at J&F Investimentos SA, the Batistas’ holding company.
