Bolsonaro Tells Brazil’s Top Court He Didn’t Seek Asylum With Hungary

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s defense told the Supreme Court that is “illogical” to suspect him of having sought political asylum with Hungary when there is no adequate reason for him to be arrested in his home country.

His lawyers told the court on Wednesday that Bolsonaro has been “highly collaborative” with the investigations against him, making a preventive detention order improbable, according to a copy of the letter seen by Bloomberg.
