BRASILIA: Security was boosted in Brasilia on Wednesday (Jan 11) as backers of ex-president Jair Bolsonaro vowed fresh protests just days after riots that shocked the Brazilian capital.
Demonstrations called for several cities on Wednesday evening were slow to get started, however, with officers in anti-riot gear and helicopter backup left twiddling their thumbs for what had been billed as a major mobilization.
The 20-year-old said that though he opposed Lula, he was against Sunday's trashing of the presidency, Congress and Supreme Court in Brasilia by thousands of Bolsonaro backers. In an invitation posted on social media, Bolsonaro backers were urged to turn out in Brasilia and other cities in a country left deeply divided by October elections in which leftist Lula narrowly beat far-right Bolsonaro.
Dubbed"fanatical fascists" by Lula, they clashed with police, beat up journalists, and left a trail of destruction in their wake. "There is no scenario under which the unacceptable events that occurred on the 8th will be repeated."In scenes strongly reminiscent of the Jan 6, 2021 storming of the US Capitol,"bolsonaristas" tore paintings and damaged furniture, broke windows and invaded the offices of judges, lawmakers and the presidency itself.
