Moraes Gives Federal Police 5 Days to Address Bolsonaro Cell Noise Complaint

Overview

• Supreme Court minister Alexandre de Moraes directed the Federal Police to submit a detailed report within five days on the air-conditioning system and conditions in the room where Jair Bolsonaro is held.
• Bolsonaro’s lawyers allege a continuous 24-hour noise from a central unit placed beside the room’s window, which they say lacks proper sealing and creates an environment incompatible with rest and health.
• The defense proposed remedies including equipment maintenance or adjustment, acoustic sealing, a change in the room layout, or an equivalent technical solution.
• Bolsonaro is serving a 27-year-and-3-month sentence for leading an attempted coup and has been detained at the Federal Police superintendence in Brasília since late November.
• After two recent medical procedures, his request for humanitarian house arrest was denied by Moraes, who cited flight-risk concerns, and his custody terms remain unchanged.
