‘You know I can’t talk,’ says Bolsonaro when he arrived at the PL headquarters in this 4th

Former President Jair Bolsonaro merely said that he could not give journalists when arriving at the headquarters of the PL in Brasilia, on the morning of Wednesday, 23. The former chief of the federal executive was accompanied by his son Jair Renan, councilman of Balneário Camboriú (SC).

“You know I can’t talk,” he said in front of photographers and cameramen. The day before, when leaving the headquarters of the party directory, Bolsonaro had adopted the same stance.

Bolsonaro fulfills restrictive measures ordered by the Supreme Court Minister (STF) Alexandre de Moraes on the 18th. In addition to wearing an electronic anklet, the former president cannot communicate via his own social network or third parties.

Bolsonaro was in the House on Monday afternoon, 21, and, on the way out, showed the journalists the electronic anklet and stated that the device symbolized the “maximum humiliation.” The images were shared on social networks by allies of the former executive chief and the press.

Moraes called for explanations for the defense about the episode and mentioned that it had clarified sooner that the prohibition of social networks, directly or through third parties, imposed on Bolsonaro included, “Obviously, the broadcasts, relay or report of audios, videos or interview transcriptions on any of the third -party social networks platforms.”

In response within 24 hours established by the court minister, Bolsonaro’s defense stated that he did not break the orders of the courts and promised that Bolsonaro will remain silent without making “any manifestation” about the case.

Also according to the lawyers, the former president cannot be held responsible for the conduct of third parties who posted on social networks what he does. “Such acts do not have the direct or indirect participation of the interviewee, which cannot be punished by acts of third parties,” he said.

The defense also requested that the minister clarifies what Bolsonaro may or may not do and justified that he was unaware that he was prohibited from giving interviews. Moraes has not yet responded to this manifestation of lawyers.
