Federal police confirmed on Thursday that investigators had concluded their long-running investigation into what they called a coordinated attempt to “violently dismantle the constitutional state”.
The accused include #Bolsonaro, a disgraced army captain turned populist politician, who was president from 2018 until the end of 2022, as well as some of the most important members of his far-right administration.
The long-awaited conclusion of the #police investigation comes just days after federal police officers made five arrests as part of a roundup of alleged members of a plot to #assassinate Bolsonaro’s leftwing successor Luiz Inácio #Lula da Silva
