Judge Alexandre de Moraes, the Federal Supreme Court’s rapporteur in the case investigating Jair Bolsonaro’s coup attempt, on Tuesday gave the former president 48 hours to explain why he took refuge in the Hungarian embassy in Brasilia between February 12 and 14. The stay was only discovered now, following a report by the New York Times, and violates this court’s injunction.
On February 8, when federal police searched Bolsonaro’s beach house in Angra dos Reis, the former president’s passport was confiscated and he was banned from leaving Brazil. This ban was violated by his stay at the Hungarian embassy, since diplomatic missions are considered Brazilian territories. the countries they represent.
In Brasilia, it is believed that the former president, fearing a worsening of his legal situation in Brazil, went to negotiate with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, a right-wing radical like himself, about a possible request for political asylum.
