Brazil's Bolsonaro Fitted With Ankle Monitor Amid Coup Allegations

Brazil's Supreme Court has ordered former President Jair Bolsonaro to wear an ankle monitor, restrict his movements, and avoid foreign embassies. This decision, stemming from charges related to an alleged coup attempt after the 2022 election, suggests the court believes he poses a flight risk. Federal police executed searches at his residence, and Bolsonaro was seen having the monitor fitted. His lawyers expressed surprise and outrage at the "severe precautionary measures." The situation is also marked by a public dispute with former U.S. President Donald Trump, who has criticized the charges as political persecution and threatened tariffs.
