Ex-Brazil President Bolsonaro appears before police, denies role in anti-govt riots

Hindustan Times  

Former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro on Wednesday denied all involvement in anti-government riots by his supporters in January as he appeared before federal police. Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro greets journalists as he leaves the Federal Police headquarters after testifying about the January 8 riots, in Brasilia, Brazil, April 26, 2023. Shortly afterward, Bolsonaro's spokesman Fabio Wajngarten told the press that the former president had "repudiated all the unfortunate events that happened in Brasilia" on the day of the riot. Thousands of Bolsonaro's supporters stormed Congress, the Supreme Court and the presidential palace in Brasilia on January 8, a week after Lula took office.
