Braga Netto Denies Coup Plot Accusations in STF Testimony

General Braga Netto, Bolsonaro's former running mate, vehemently denies accusations of orchestrating a coup attempt during his testimony before the Supreme Federal Court (STF) on June 10th, 2025. The Attorney General's Office alleges that Braga Netto, while imprisoned in Rio de Janeiro, attempted to intimidate military leaders into supporting a coup. However, Braga Netto refutes these claims in a videoconference interrogation, stating, "Jamais ordenei ou coordenei ataques a nenhum dos chefes militares." He asserts that he would have directly addressed any concerns to the military chiefs personally. This testimony marks the conclusion of the hearings for the First Panel of the STF. The investigation continues.
