Description
Two Brazilian political analysts weigh in on the Supreme Court's decision ordering far-right ex-president Jair Bolsonaro to stand trial on charges of attempting a coup after failing to win re-election in 2022.
"It's clear that there is a possibility of conviction," says criminal lawyer and Sao Paulo professor, Pierpaolo Bottini. "The conviction of Bolsonaro is not a matter of if, it is a matter of when," adds Marcio Coimbra, CEO of the think tank Casa Politica.
A five-judge panel of the court voted unanimously to try Brazil's 2019-2022 leader on charges of leading a "criminal organization" that sought to prevent his leftist successor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva taking power. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
