According to the verdict, the calls were made in connection with the trial of his father, who was sentenced to 27 years in prison for trying to stage a coup after his election loss in 2022.
Bolsonaro Jr., who lives in the United States, was sentenced in absentia. In addition to the prison sentence, he is barred from holding public office in Brazil for eight years after serving his sentence.
“There is only one real purpose to this pointless trial: to remove my name from the election,” Bolsonaro Jr., who had planned to run as a substitute candidate in the Senate elections in October, claimed in a statement after the verdict.
