Brazilian army dismantles Bolsonaro's amateur camps by order of the Supreme
- The Police arrests extreme right-wing supporters who have promoted the coup and the Supreme Court requires them to dismantle the Bolsonaro amateur camps for 24 hours. At least 1,200 people have been arrested. Bolsonaro's followers camped in front of the army barracks since October 30, are asking the military to take Lula out of power.
Brazilian Supreme Court judge Alexandre Morares has ordered the army to dissolve all Bolsonaro's amateur camps in 24 hours. He criticized the country's armed forces' connection with the extreme right people of these camps: "Nothing justifies the existence of terrorist camps financed by civilian and military authorities in a totally subversive way and without any constitutional respect," the Berria newspaper said.
Morales has made it clear that if he does not fulfil the mandate, he will make the Ministry of Police and Defense and its officials available for justice. The Folha newspaper in Sao Paulo has confirmed that the police have taken the Brazilian camp and asked the protesters to come for an hour. The newspaper states that Bolsonaro has not had incidents between amateurs and police. However, at least 1,200 people have been arrested in the dissolution of the camps, according to the Ministry of Justice.
Jair Bolsonaro's followers have been camping in front of the army headquarters, not only in Brasilia, but in several cities of the country since the October 30 elections. Bolsonaro, former president of the far right, did not publicly accept the election results. Since then, Bolsonaro’s followers have taken the same stand and asked the military to avoid taking over the new government.
On January 1 he took over the government of Lula da Silva in Brasilia, an event among great security measures for fear of the attacks of the extreme right and without the participation for the first time in the history of Brazil of a former president, who left to the United States two days earlier.
Background to the coup
On December 12, when the Supreme Court of Elections approved Lula in Brasilia as the elected president of Brazil, Bolsonaro fans of the camps in the capital burned buses and cars and turned against the police, as El Diario remembers.
There were plenty of signs to anticipate the coup that Bolsonaro’s followers have given on Sunday, which had been pushing and organizing, among other things, the amateurs who were gathered in the camps and the protesters against Lula. The new government was aware of this, and was also being alerted in the media.
Supreme Court Judge Alexandre Moraes imprisoned in December two influencer fans of Bolsonaro in Hiporitas, Oswaldo Eustáquio and Bismark Fugazza, accused of promoting demonstrations demanding a military coup. The 54-year-old businessman George Washington of Oliveira Sousa was also arrested on 21 December, after attempting to exploit a fuel-carrying truck, near the capital’s international airport. Lula came to this airport to take over. Following this incident, police reported the inactivation of several explosives in the vicinity of Brasilia.
After the arrest of Oliveira Sousa, he noted that “those who pushed me into arms were the words of President Bolsonaro, who stressed the importance of civil weapons by saying, ‘An armed people will never be enslaved’.
“Terrorist incubator”
The newly elected Minister of Justice and Security, Flávio Dino, warned that the camps were “incubators of terrorists” and already at the end of December indicated the need to dismantle the camps, after learning of the attempted attack by Oliveira Sousa.
