Bolsonaro was accused of trying to the coup in the aftermath of an election defeat in Brazil
Brazil has accused the former preside of trying for the coup after defeating the election.
The Brazilian prosecutor general has accused former Preside Jaier Bolsonaro of trying to change the election result, according to ISNA. He may be arrested.
Jaier Bullesonaro was accused of extensive planning to maiain power after defeating the election on Tuesday. The program included attempts to cancel the elections, dissolve the courts, strengthen the army, and even a conspiracy to assassinate the preside.
The allegations made in a 2 -page indictme show that Brazil was dangerously on the verge of returning to a military dictatorship after four decades of modern democracy.
Brazilian prosecutor Paulo Ge Branco has accused Bolesonaro and four others, including former head of ielligence, defense minister and national security adviser. They have been accused of committing a series of crimes against Brazilian democracy. The allegations are basically based on the recommendations of the Brazilian Federal Police in November.
The case has now been referred to the Brazilian Supreme Court on whether Bolesonaro should be arrested and tried. According to the indictme, if convicted, he may be seenced to 5 to 5 years in prison, although political analysts expect his punishme to be less than that.
In an ierview last moh, Bolsonaro rejected the charges of coup planning, saying that he legally questioned the defective election system and sought the constitutional solutions to correct the outcome he was suspicious. His lawyer made no comme on Tuesday.
The allegations are the latest chapter of the many years of Brazil’s adveure, which includes the discretion of the coury’s voting system, a stressful election that never fully accepted defeat, his supporters of power buildings in Brazil, and a coroversial investigation that leads to a prisoner since December. He has become his election vice.
The Brazilian people may now see a television trial in the Supreme Court that will eveually turn Bolesonaru io the third Brazilian preside in the past eight years.
This situation has a significa coradiction with the United States. Bolesonaro and the US preside, who were political allies and mirrors, have both been accused of trying to change the outcome of the election. But Trump’s case was abandoned with his return to power, while Bolsonaro is in his weakest political situation.
The Brazilian election court has earlier ordered that Bolsonaro is not eligible for next year’s presideial election. The Attorney General also has two other criminal cases against him. The Brazilian Supreme Court judge, who will be responsible for his coup case, is probably his biggest political rival.
While the US Supreme Court ruled that Trump was largely immune from prosecution for his actions during the presidency, the Brazilian Supreme Court has taken an offensive approach against Bolsonaro and his right -wing moveme.
The court has guided the investigation, issued detainees, and censored many supporters of Bolsonaro on social media, arguing that his moveme’s ai -democratic measures require an extraordinary reaction. Now, four high -ranking judges can determine the fate of Bolsonaro.
“In a republic, everyone can be held accouable,” Paulo Ge Branco wrote in a three -page iroduction to the indictme. The preside is no exception. “
