The DF governing council suspends the advisor who asked to inspect Bolsonaro’s cell at the PF

Rocha’s request was made without Council authorization, which would violate internal rules. Thirteen councilors voted for the suspension. Some of them declared that he had carried out acts “beyond his competence” and that he should have forwarded the request so that it could be discussed beforehand at the collegiate body. The suspension was decided on December 17.

According to the Council’s decision, he is suspended from his functions until a “proper investigation is carried out into the facts”.
