Former president was arrested this Saturday (22) after trying to remove the equipment
In the early hours of this Saturday (22), the electronic ankle bracelet registered a violation at around 0:08 am, which led to the order of his preventive detention by the STF minister. According to the former president, he would have used a hot iron on the equipment out of “curiosity”.
The device, used to monitor the former president’s movements, automatically alerts the Courts and the Federal Police if it is removed or tampered with.
After the violation was detected, Bolsonaro was taken to the Federal Police superintendence in Brasília, where he will remain at the disposal of the Justice Department. Check out the equipment below:
