In a jolly tale fit for a 17th century pirate, we find our protagonist Mr Bolsonaro in quite a pickle! It seems he has been found guilty of misusing his power before last year's grand presidential poll. Ahoy, what a scoundrel! The accusations against him claim that he gallantly undermined Brazilian democracy by spreading falsehoods about the vulnerability of the electronic ballots to hacking and fraud. Shiver me timbers!
But fear not, for Mr Bolsonaro's clever lawyers are plotting their next move. They plan to appeal against this scurvy verdict, arguing that their captain's statements had no impact on the election outcome. Will their appeal be successful, or will it be met with a resounding "walk the plank"? Only time will tell, me hearties!
