Brazil court grants temporary house arrest for jailed Bolsonaro

The 71-year-old former far-right president was sentenced to 27 years in prison last September for an attempted coup in 2022. Since mid-January, Bolsonaro had been serving his sentence at the Papuda penitentiary complex in Brasília. On March 13, he was admitted to a private clinic in the capital after falling ill in his cell.
