Brazil: Eduardo Bolsonaro Ordered to Begin Prison Sentence, Political Rights Suspended
Brazil's Supreme Court (STF) Minister Alexandre de Moraes has ordered the immediate commencement of Eduardo Bolsonaro's 4-year, 2-month prison sentence for coercion, along with the seizure/cancellation of his passport and suspension of his political rights. This decision, confirmed by multiple sources, marks a significant escalation in judicial enforcement against the Bolsonaro family, with high confidence in the order's issuance.
