Brazilian Supreme Court blocks Milei's visit to Bolsonaro over restrictions on house arrest

The Supreme Court of Brazil has blocked Argentine President Javier Milei's planned visit to former president Jair Bolsonaro, who is under house arrest in Brasília. The decision was made by Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who oversees the enforcement of measures against Bolsonaro. Bolsonaro's defense had requested permission for Milei to visit him on July 25, during Milei's trip to Brazil. However, Moraes denied the request, citing the tightening of conditions for Bolsonaro’s house arrest after he allegedly violated restrictions by supporting his son Flávio Bolsonaro's presidential candidacy. The court also prohibited Bolsonaro from receiving political or electoral visits and restricted the dissemination of political materials related to him. Additionally, Flávio Bolsonaro is banned from visiting his father for three months. Bolsonaro is serving a 27-year sentence for crimes linked to a coup plot against current president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, and authorities allege he has repeatedly violated judicial orders, including using social media through intermediaries and possibly breaking his electronic ankle bracelet.
