☆ Brazil congressional probe calls for Bolsonaro to face criminal charges
  + stars: | 2023-10-18 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
[1/4] Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro speaks with the media as he leaves the Federal Police headquarters after testifying about the January 8 riots, in Brasilia, Brazil, October 18, 2023. On Tuesday, Gama, the rapporteur of the inquiry, had recommended that Bolsonaro should face charges of criminal association, political violence, disrupting the democratic order and an attempted coup d'état. The inquiry has no power to punish Bolsonaro or his allies but can issue recommendations for prosecutors to file criminal or civil charges. The findings of the congressional inquiry only add to Bolsonaro's legal woes, which have grown since he begrudgingly stepped down last year. Mauro Cid was allegedly a key player in two high-profile criminal probes into Bolsonaro.

CNN —Brazil’s highest electoral court formed a majority Friday to ban former President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro from running for office until 2030 on charges alleging that he abused his political power and misused public resources. Four out of seven judges have voted to find the former president guilty. The case began with a lawsuit brought by Brazil’s Democratic Labor Party against both Bolsonaro and Walter Braga Netto, his running mate in the 2022 elections. The majority of judges voted to find Braga Netto not guilty. Speaking to Brazilian radio station Itatiaia on Friday, Bolsonaro said he planned on appealing the decision.

☆ Brazil's Jair Bolsonaro's trial on abuse of political power charges begins in Brazil

CNN —Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s trial on charges of abuse of political power and misuse of public media began in the country’s highest electoral court on Thursday in Brasilia. If found guilty, Bolsonaro could be ruled ineligible to run for public office for up to eight years. Such claims of flaws in the electoral system have all been denied by Brazil’s electoral authorities. The livestream of the 2022 meeting, which was once available through official channels, was taken down by YouTube for not complying with its fake news policy. Bolsonaro lost last year’s election by the narrowest margin in decades against current President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

☆ Brazil acting president hits out at 'silent' Bolsonaro in New Year speech
  + stars: | 2023-01-01 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
SAO PAULO, Dec 31 (Reuters) - Brazil's acting president, Hamilton Mourao, on Saturday criticized outgoing far-right leader Jair Bolsonaro for allowing anti-democratic sentiment to thrive in the wake of this year's election, in a veiled dig in a New Year speech. Vice president under Bolsonaro, Mourao delivered the New Year speech after taking over on Friday, when the outgoing president flew to Florida to avoid handing over the presidential sash to leftist President-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva at his Jan. 1 inauguration. Bolsonaro's exit follows weeks of near silence following his defeat in Brazil's most fraught election in a generation. Mourao was elected in 2018 as Bolsonaro's running mate but was ditched in this year's election, with the outgoing president choosing former Chief of Staff Walter Braga Netto to join his defeated ticket. Mourao instead ran for Senate and secured a spot in the upper house of Congress representing the state of Rio Grande do Sul.
