Brazil top court rules out immediate arrest of Bolsonaro for violating social media ban
Brazil's Supreme Court decided not to jail former President Jair Bolsonaro right away while he stands trial for allegedly planning a coup after his 2022 election defeat. But there's a catch—if he breaks the court's rules, like posting on social media (which he's banned from doing), he could be arrested immediately. The case stems from accusations that Bolsonaro tried to undermine the election results that brought his rival, Lula da Silva, back to power.
