SAO PAULO (Reuters) -A four-judge panel of Brazil's Supreme Court voted unanimously on Monday to keep former President Jair Bolsonaro in police custody after Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered his detention on Saturday citing a flight risk.
Justices Flavio Dino, Cristiano Zanin and Carmen Lucia joined Moraes, backing a decision that had ended more than 100 days of house arrest. Bolsonaro is awaiting final appeals against his 27-year prison sentence for plotting a coup.
