Flavio Bolsonaro Authorized to Visit Jailed Father Jair Bolsonaro After Suspension Ends Brazilian presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro will visit his jailed father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, on Tuesday after a Supreme Court judge authorized the resumption of visits, barring any political or electoral purpose. Brazilian presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro will visit his jailed father, former president Jair Bolsonaro, on Tuesday after a Supreme Court judge authorized the resumption of visits on Monday. Judge Alexandre de Moraes lifted the suspension but prohibited the visits from having any political or electoral purpose, according to the ruling seen by AFP. The 90-day suspension of Flavio Bolsonaro's visitation rights ended on Sunday. He had been barred from visiting his father in July after reading out a letter from the former president on YouTube. Jair Bolsonaro is under house arrest and is banned from using social media, either directly or through a third party.Jail Visit Rules and Political BanJudge Moraes ruled that the former president had violated the terms of his sentence. Jair Bolsonaro is serving his sentence for attempting to mount a coup after his electoral defeat to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in 2022. He is also barred from politics until 2030. Flavio Bolsonaro, a right-wing senator, is the favorite to win the presidential runoff against incumbent Lula on October 25.He told reporters in Brasilia he will visit his father on Tuesday morning. I am anxious; it has been more than three months since I have been able to see him, Flavio Bolsonaro said after attending a religious service marking the feast day of Brazil's patron saint. The senator called the suspension of his visitation rights a decision made without any criteria, without any humanity, and without any legal basis.After the first-round vote, Jair Bolsonaro's defense team asked the judge to lift the suspension prematurely. Moraes did not make a decision until the deadline had passed. Jair Bolsonaro is still considered the leader of his far-right political movement. He selected his son to run for president in his place because he is barred from politics until 2030.Election Results and Opposition SupportFlavio Bolsonaro has secured the support of other right-wing candidates who were eliminated in the first round. He received 47 percent of votes against 45 percent for leftist Lula, who is seeking a fourth nonconsecutive term. The photo shows opposition presidential candidate Sen.
