Brasilia.-<\/strong> The Supreme Court of Justice of Brazil<\/strong> ordered this Monday the house arrest of former president Jair Bolsonaro for failing to comply with some of the precautionary restrictions that had been imposed on him due to the risk of a flight, within the framework of his trial for coupism.<\/p>\n\n\nMagistrate Alexandre de Moraes<\/strong>, the instructor in the case against the far-right leader in the Supreme Federal Court, determined the house arrest regime for Bolsonaro, who was also prohibited from receiving visitors at his residence, with the exception of his immediate family and lawyers.\n\n\n
