Dino defends Supreme Court's Ramagem decision in Brazil

noticias.uol.com.br (Portuguese)

Supreme Court Justice Flávio Dino stated the court's decision regarding the case against Congressman Alexandre Ramagem does not violate the separation of powers. This follows the court's ruling that contradicted the Chamber of Deputies' vote. Dino's statement, made during a Supreme Court session, was a direct response to the Chamber of Deputies' claim. He argued the court's role includes reviewing decisions from other branches, and that preventing this would undermine the Republic. The Chamber of Deputies had sought to suspend the criminal proceedings against Ramagem, potentially benefiting former President Jair Bolsonaro. The Supreme Court's decision is unlikely to be overturned.
