Overview
- Senator Flávio Bolsonaro said the former president endures a constant, intense hum he described as psychological torture, noting the noise is measurable in the visiting room and worse where he sleeps.
- Carlos Bolsonaro stated that ear protectors were provided to muffle the sound, arguing the measure fails to remove the source and places the burden on the detainee.
- In a filing to the Supreme Court, the Federal Police said the noise stems from proximity to the central air‑conditioning system and that an effective fix would require complex work and suspending the superintendence.
- The Federal Police told the court there is no other suitable room available for Jair Bolsonaro within the Brasília facility and no short‑term solution to reduce the noise.
- Bolsonaro’s legal team is pursuing a request for humanitarian house arrest as allied PL politicians publicly frame the conditions as degrading and call for his transfer.
