Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro Arrested Days Before Imprisonment
Jair Bolsonaro, the former president of Brazil, has been arrested by federal police just days before he was set to begin a 27-year prison sentence. This arrest comes amid fears of public disorder and allegations that Bolsonaro plotted an escape ahead of his incarceration. His legal team is seeking house arrest due to his claimed health issues, while the Supreme Court has ordered his arrest in response to these concerns. The political climate remains tense as the country grapples with the implications of his actions.
