'24 in 24': Sask. woman's initiative collects almost 750 kg of food for the communitySAO PAULO (AP) — Brazil’s former far-right President Jair Bolsonaro was fully aware of and actively participated in a coup plot to remain in office after his defeat in the 2022 election , according to a Federal Police report unsealed Tuesday. Federal Police last Thursday formally accused Bolsonaro and 36 other people of attempting a coup. They sent their 884-page report to the Supreme Court, which lifted the seal. “The evidence collected throughout the investigation shows unequivocally that then-President Jair Messias Bolsonaro planned, acted and was directly and effectively aware of the actions of the criminal organization aiming to launch a coup d’etat and eliminate the democratic rule of law, which did not take place due to reasons unrelated to his desire,” the document said. At another point, it says: “Bolsonaro had full awareness and active participation.” Bolsonaro, who had repeatedly alleged without evidence that the country's electronic voting system was prone to fraud, called a meeting in December 2022, during which he presented a draft decree to the commanders of the three divisions of the armed forces, according to the police report, signed by four investigators. The decree would have launched an investigation into suspicions of fraud and crimes related to the October 2022 vote, and suspended the powers of the nation's electoral court. The navy’s commander stood ready to comply, but those from the army and air force objected to any plan that prevented Lula’s inauguration, the report said. Those refusals are why the plan did not go ahead, according to witnesses who spoke to investigators. Bolsonaro never signed the decree to set the final stage of the alleged plan into action. Bolsonaro has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing or awareness of any plot to keep him in power or oust his leftist rival and successor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. “No one is going to do a coup with a reserve general and half a dozen other officers. What is being said is absurd. For my part, there has never been any discussion of a coup,” Bolsonaro told journalists in Brazil’s capital Brasilia on Monday. “If someone came to discuss a coup with me, I’d say, that’s fine, but the day after, how does the world view us?” he added. “The word ‘coup’ has never been in my dictionary.” The top court has passed the report on to Prosecutor-General Paulo Gonet. He will decide whether to formally charge Bolsonaro and put him on trial, or toss the investigation. Ahead of the 2022 election, Bolsonaro repeatedly alleged that the election system, which does not use paper ballots, could be tampered with. The top electoral court later ruled that he had abused his power to cast unfounded doubt on the voting system, and ruled him ineligible for office until 2030 . Still, he has maintained that he will stand as a candidate in the 2026 race. Since Bolsonaro left office, he has been targeted by several investigations, all of which he has chalked up to political persecution. Federal Police have accused him of smuggling diamond jewelry into Brazil without properly declaring them and directing a subordinate to falsify his and others’ COVID-19 vaccination statuses . Authorities are also investigating whether he incited the Jan. 8, 2022 riot in which his followers ransacked the Supreme Court and presidential palace in Brasilia, seeking to prompt intervention by the army that would oust Lula from power. Bolsonaro had left for the United States days before Lula’s inauguration on Jan. 1, 2023 and stayed there three months, keeping a low profile. The police report unsealed Tuesday alleges he was seeking to avoid possible imprisonment related to the coup plot, and also await the uprising that took place a week later.

Chandigarh: A total 60 FIRs were filed against a Delhi man and unknown people across different districts of Punjab after videos of a morphed ‘old speech' by Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Dr BR Ambedkar surfaced on social media platforms, according to sources in the Punjab police . The FIRs have been filed under the same provisions of BNS and SC/ST Act. Seven FIRs each were registered in different police stations of Amritsar and Ludhiana Commissionerate, followed by six in Bathinda, five in Hoshiarpur, four each in Barnala and Ferozepur. The FIRs were registered in different police stations in 16 other police districts also. The complainants, in their statements to the police, have highlighted that some miscreants had uploaded a ‘morphed speech' video of AAP leader Kejriwal on social media platforms about Dr Ambedkar. These morphed videos are hurting the sentiments of the SC/ST community and are tarnishing the image of Kejriwal, they added. The cases have been registered under similar charges of 192 (wantonly giving provocation with intent to cause riot), 336(4) (forgery), 352 (intentional insult with intent to breach peace), 353(2) (creating enmity between different groups) of the BNS; Section 3(1) of SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act; and Section 65 of the IT Act. One of the complaints in Bathinda has been filed by Balbir Singh Chotian, district president SC wing and the other by Manjit Singh, state joint secretary SC wing, AAP Punjab. X user Vibhor Anand later posted on his handle that the video had been posted online by multiple people. Reacting to the registration of FIRs against him, Anand said that he would "fight this witch hunt by Punjab Police." Stay updated with the latest news on Times of India .
