Lula vetoes bill reducing Bolsonaro’s 27-year sentence for his role in the 2023 Brasília coup attempt.
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva vetoed a bill that would have reduced former President Jair Bolsonaro’s 27-year sentence for his role in a failed 2023 coup attempt, marking the third anniversary of violent riots by Bolsonaro supporters who stormed government buildings in Brasília.
Lula called the event a democratic victory and rejected efforts to downplay the coup attempt, while Bolsonaro’s legal team continues to seek house arrest on health grounds.
The veto blocks sentence reductions for Bolsonaro and others convicted in the plot, though Congress may override the veto.
