Moraes Keeps Bolsonaro on Home Detention and Revokes His Gun Rights

The decision ties continued humanitarian house arrest to strict monitoring and requires Bolsonaro to surrender all firearms registered to him within 48 hours to address public‑safety concerns.

Overview

  • On Friday, July 3, 2026, Supreme Court minister Alexandre de Moraes prorogued Jair Bolsonaro’s prison domiciliary on medical and humanitarian grounds while finding no disciplinary fault that would return him to a closed regime.
  • Moraes ordered the immediate revocation of Bolsonaro’s carry permit and CAC registration and gave the defense 48 hours to deliver all firearms registered in his name to the Federal Police.
  • The move follows a June 15 traffic stop in which a Glock 9mm registered to Bolsonaro was seized from his security agent and a Polícia Civil report that indicted the agent but did not attribute criminal responsibility to the former president.
  • Prosecutor‑General Paulo Gonet told the court he saw no 'falta grave' that would change the detention regime but agreed the weapons should remain seized because Bolsonaro’s current condition is incompatible with firearm possession.
  • Moraes kept strict monitoring conditions—a bracelet, limits on phones and social media, and controlled visits—and warned that failure to comply or any new infractions could revoke the domiciliary and trigger an immediate return to closed prison; the case builds on Bolsonaro’s conviction for leading a failed coup and his March transfer to house arrest for health treatment.
