The Supreme Court of Brazil ordered the house arrest of 10 defendants linked to coup-related activities, one day after an escape attempt by a suspect in the plot led by former president Jair Bolsonaro. Justice Alexandre de Moraes determined the measure to prevent further incidents, with Federal Police enforcing the ruling. The defendants, whose sentences remain under appeal, had previously been granted temporary freedom under precautionary measures such as wearing electronic ankle bracelets. They will now be confined to their residences while continuing to use tracking devices.
