SAO PAULO, Sept. 13 (Xinhua) — Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro's defense team said Thursday they will appeal a court ruling that sentenced the former leader to 27 years and three months in prison.
Earlier, four out of five judges of the Federal Supreme Court of Brazil voted to find J. Bolsonaro guilty of attempting a coup d'état.
The former president's lawyers, Celso Vilardi and Paulo Amador da Cunha Bueno, said they would file "all possible appeals, including at the international level."
The defence argued that the case should have been heard by a lower court or the Federal Supreme Court en banc, rather than its first panel. They also criticised the limited time given to consider evidence. –0–
