RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) — Brazil's Supreme Federal Court (SFC) on Monday ordered former President Jair Bolsonaro to be placed under house arrest for failing to comply with restrictions related to an ongoing investigation into his alleged involvement in a coup plot in 2022.

Judge Alexandre de Morais ruled that Bolsonaro violated a ban on social media by distributing messages through accounts run by his sons and political allies. The judge said the posts incited attacks on the FSF and expressed support for foreign interference in Brazil's judiciary.

“There is no doubt that there was a deliberate violation of the restrictive measure imposed on J. Bolsonaro,” said A. de Morais, adding that stricter sanctions are needed to prevent further crimes by the former president.

The decree obliges J. Bolsonaro to stay at home, wear an electronic ankle bracelet and hand over his mobile phones. He will not be able to receive visitors, with the exception of lawyers and persons authorized by the VFS.

Despite previous restrictions prohibiting him from using social media or contacting other suspects, the former president continued to influence political debates in the digital space through third parties, the judge said.

The FSB is conducting several investigations into Bolsonaro, including one related to his alleged role in an attempted coup after the 2022 elections.

In July, A. de Morais announced the introduction of strict judicial restrictions on the former president, including nightly house arrest on weekdays, full house arrest on weekends and holidays, as well as a ban on contacts with foreign diplomats and visits to embassies and consulates. –0–
