BRASILIA (Reuters) - Police have identified the man who killed himself in a blast outside Brazil's Supreme Court on Wednesday night as a former city council candidate from ex-President Jair Bolsonaro's right-wing party with a history of heated political rhetoric online.
The explosions outside the court and in a nearby parking lot, which federal police called "attacks," raised security concerns days ahead of the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro and Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to the capital Brasilia.
