Brazilian court to decide on Bolsonaro's trial for alleged coup attempt

ai generated text

Five judges in Brazil's Supreme Court have agreed to consider whether there is sufficient evidence to try former President Jair Bolsonaro and seven alleged co-conspirators on charges of orchestrating a violent plot to seize power through a military coup. Bolsonaro faces the possibility of a prison sentence of over 40 years if convicted. The charges against him and the co-conspirators include attempting a coup d'état and allegedly planning to assassinate elected President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, his vice president, and a minister of the Supreme Court. Bolsonaro has denied any wrongdoing.

    1. It was a veritable pitched battle … It was an extraordinarily violent attempted coup d'état.

    1. I'm fine. We always expect justice. Nothing is substantiated in the accusations made in a biased manner by the Federal Police.
    2. They are accusing me of a crime I never committed – a supposed attempted coup.
    3. In my case, the referee whistles against the game before the game even starts… and it's also the VAR (video assistant referee), the linesman, the coach and the opposing team's top scorer; all in one person.
