Luiz Fux acquits Jair Bolsonaro in alleged coup plot case, intensifying political polarization in Brazil.

Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Luiz Fux voted to acquit Jair Bolsonaro in a case related to an alleged coup plot. The decision, announced in a context of political polarization, generated intense reactions, with Bolsonaro supporters celebrating the measure, while critics on the left expressed outrage.

Fux, known for his punitive history, surprised many by adopting a stance that, according to analysts, could strengthen the narrative of "political persecution" among Bolsonaro supporters. The professor Beto Vasques[Name], from the Democracy in Check Institute, stated that Fux's vote "opens the doors to amnesty" and legitimizes the idea that there was no attempted coup in Brazil. This position contrasts with his previous trajectory, marked by rigorous decisions in cases such as Mensalão and Lava Jato.
