Brazil TSE imposes 24-hour reporting rule on PRF election-day roadblocks

Brazil's Superior Electoral Court (TSE) has mandated that the Federal Highway Police (PRF) must justify any unannounced roadblocks on federal highways during voting days within 24 hours, tightening oversight of security forces in elections. This follows past controversies over PRF operations potentially affecting voter access. The rule aims to increase transparency but its enforcement and impact on election integrity remain to be seen.
