The request was based on a gesture made by Moraes during the trial of a lawsuit involving Bolsonaro’s life, on September 27 last year, in the presidential campaign in which he was seeking to be re-elected.
The plenary of the Higher Electoral Tribunal (TSE) unanimously rejected a request made by the former president’s defense Jair Bolsonaro so that the minister Alexander of Moraes removed from a lawsuit involving the former rep.
The request was based on a gesture made by Moraes during the trial of a lawsuit involving Bolsonaro’s life, on September 27 last year, in the presidential campaign in which he was seeking to be re-elected.
On the occasion, Moraes made a gesture of pricking his finger, which was interpreted by the defense as a manifestation of “animosity” towards Bolsonaro and of “personal interest” in the trial, which is why they asked for the minister’s suspicion, who is the president of the TSE.
Several news outlets reported at the time that the gesture had nothing to do with the trial, but had been directed at a councilor who had taken time out to carry out an assignment requested by Moraes.
the minister Ricardo Lewandowski had previously denied the claim of suspicion, stating that “the objective of this appeal is only to create a political fact with the reprehensible purpose of disrupting the electoral process“.
The case then went to the minister’s office. Nunes Marquesses, who used the same words to vote to reject the request. He was followed by the other ministers who participated in the process. Since he was the target of the request, Moraes was barred from voting.
