Bolsonaro Hospitalized in Brasília After Acute Episode, Will Stay Overnight

The Supreme Court requires a medical certificate within 24 hours for emergency departures during his domiciliary custody.

Overview

  • The ex-president experienced pre-syncope, vomiting and low blood pressure and was taken to Hospital DF Star under police-penal escort.
  • The hospital said he will remain under observation overnight for stabilization and exams.
  • His defense filed a medical certificate to the Supreme Court, which Minister Alexandre de Moraes added to the case and forwarded to the Prosecutor-General’s Office.
  • On Sunday, he had skin lesions removed, received intravenous iron for iron‑deficiency anemia and underwent imaging that showed residual aspiration‑related pneumonia.
  • Moraes ordered the DF Penal Police to explain the delay in his Sept. 14 return home with a detailed escort report due in 24 hours, and this was his third hospital departure since the domiciliary order.
