The defense of the former president Jair Bolsonaro (PL) issued a new declaration on Friday 18, after learning the content of the decision of Minister Alexandre de Moraes, the Supreme Court (STF), who authorized the fulfillment of the research and seizure mandates and the application of precautionary measures against Bolsonaro.
The legal team calls the measures, including monitoring of the electronic ankle, “serious” and states that they were imposed “due to acts performed by third parties, a circumstance not published in the Brazilian law”.
“The phrases highlighted as attentive to national sovereignty have never been said by Bolsonaro. And it does not seem to be right or even reasonable that sending money for his son, daughter -law and grandchildren can be a reason to impose precautionary measures such as these, especially since they were made before the facts now under investigation”, the lawyers add.
They also say that “it is noteworthy that, despite the determination of the night collection and the use of Anklet, the decision of the Federal Supreme Court does not use any indication as a foundation that can underline a risk of escape”.
“It also causes a species that, among the precautionary measures, includes the ban on speaking or having contact with their child, a natural right as a sacred”, complement, in reference to the ban on contact with the authorized federal Eduardo Bolsonaro (PL-SP), who lives in the United States with the family.
They also say that the final defense was not even presented in the case file. “Therefore, the president and his defense are awaiting a fair trial and based exclusively for the presumption of innocence, which must always govern any criminal proceedings”.
The note is signed by the lawyers Celso Vilardi, Paulo Cunha Bueno and Daniel Tesser.
