A panel of Brazil ’s Supreme Court reunited on Wednesday for a second day of proceedings to decide whether former President Jair Bolsonaro and several close allies will stand trial on five counts including attempting to stage a coup.
Bolsonaro and his alleged accomplices also are accused of involvement in an armed criminal organization, attempted violent abolition of the democratic rule of law, damage characterized by violence and a serious threat against the state’s assets, and deterioration of listed heritage.
