Bolsonaro Asks STF to Approve Visit From Governor Ronaldo Caiado

Overview

• Bolsonaro remains under house arrest in Brasília, and any in‑person visitors require authorization from Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes.
• Bolsonaro’s lawyers filed Caiado’s written request and asked that the meeting be allowed on November 10, 11, or 12.
• Caiado, a declared presidential pre‑candidate, states he will not seek to interfere with the house‑arrest conditions or discuss matters under judicial review.
• The defense expressed its consent to Caiado’s visit and also requested authorization for visits by Evair de Melo, José Medeiros, Sanderson, Odelmo Leão, and Bruno Scheid.
• A ruling had not been recorded as of publication, and court rules for approved visits include hours from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. with no cellphones or recordings.
