apnews.com — November 19, 2024, 05:01 PM UTC

Brazilian police have arrested five officers linked to a coup plot aimed at overthrowing the government and assassinating President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. The suspects include four military personnel and one police officer. The investigation revealed plans to also target Vice President Geraldo Alckmin and Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. Arrest warrants and searches were executed, and suspects' passports were seized. These arrests follow earlier statements from military leaders about former President Jair Bolsonaro's attempts to remain in power after losing the 2022 election. President Lula, attending the G20 summit, has not publicly commented on the arrests.
