Moraes asks GSI for details on Bolsonaro's security

TL;DR

  • Minister Alexandre de Moraes of the STF ordered the Institutional Security Cabinet (GSI) to provide updated information on Jair Bolsonaro's security team within five days.
  • The decision was made following a request from former security member Sérgio Rocha Cordeiro, who seeks authorization to return to Bolsonaro's residence.
  • Moraes previously denied Bolsonaro's defense requests to include Cordeiro and another former security member in the authorized personnel list for the residence.
  • Cordeiro proposed a 90-day provisional release, with specific conditions, as an alternative to permanent authorization.
  • Cordeiro was previously investigated for alleged fraud in COVID-19 vaccination cards and was held preventively for four months in 2023.
