Defense informed the Supreme Court that the former president’s doctor requested nine procedures, including blood and urine, endoscopy and prostate ultrasound
The former President (PL), who is under house arrest by decision of the Federal Supreme Court Minister (), asked the court to permit to perform a series of medical examinations in a private hospital. Bolsonaro’s defense told the Supreme Court that the former president’s doctor requested nine procedures, including blood and urine, endoscopy and prostate ultrasound. “The request stems from the follow -up of ongoing drug treatment, the need to reevaluate reflux symptoms and refractory hiccups, as well as the verification of current health conditions,” Bolsonaro lawyers say in the request.
The exams, scheduled for next Saturday, with an estimated duration of six to eight hours, still depend on analysis and approval of Moraes. In addition to the examinations, the defense also requested authorization for four allies to visit Bolsonaro: the mayor of São Paulo, (MDB), Senator Rogério Marinho (PL-RN), Federal Deputy Altineu Côrtes (PL-RJ) and state deputy Tomé Abduch (Republicanos-SP).
