Supporters of Brazil's far-right former president Jair Bolsonaro are transferred by bus from the federal police headquarters, where they were held to verify their identity and criminal records for possible involvement in vandalism during the invasions of Congress, the presidential palace and the Supreme Court, in Brasilia.

Brazilian police officers leave the headquarters of Bolsonaro's Liberal Party with seized objects, one of the dozens of raids carried targeting suspects accused of orchestrating an invasion of the seat of power last year. The raids were authorized by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who also ordered that multiple suspects be suspended from public duties and surrender their passports within 24 hours. That included Bolsonaro, whose lawyer and adviser Fabio Wajngarten confirmed in a statement on X, formerly Twitter, that the far-right ex-army captain would comply with the order. IMAGES
