Brazilian police arrest ex-Bolsonaro cabinet member in coup plot probe
Brazil’s Federal Police have arrested Gen Walter Braga Netto, a former member of President Jair Bolsonaro’s cabinet and his 2022 running mate, in connection with investigations into an alleged coup plot, officials said.
Braga Netto was formally accused in November, along with Bolsonaro and 35 others, of plotting a coup to keep Bolsonaro in office following his failed 2022 re-election bid.
