One of his attorneys, Celso Vilardi, told the AFP news agency, “He has been imprisoned, but I don’t know why.”
The embattled former leader was taken to the police headquarters in Brasilia, according to a close aide who spoke with The Associated Press.
Andriely Cirino, Bolsonaro’s agent, confirmed to AP that the arrest occurred on Saturday at around 6 a.m. (03:00 GMT).
The organization stated in a brief statement that it acted at the Supreme Court of Brazil’s request and did not name Bolsonaro.
At the time of publication, neither Brazil’s federal police nor the Supreme Court provided more information.
According to Cirino, the 70-year-old former president was taken to the federal police headquarters from his home in the gated Jardim Botanico neighborhood.
After the far-right leader’s appeals for his life sentence for leading a coup attempt were overturned, Bolsonaro, who served as Brazil’s president from 2019 to 2022, was scheduled to start serving his sentence sometime next week, according to local media.
The 70-year-old Bolsonaro’s legal team had previously argued that he should spend his 27-year sentence at home for a failed coup attempt in 2022, arguing that jail time would be harmful to his health.
Following the 2022 election, which he lost, Bolsonaro was found guilty in September of trying to oust Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva from power.
A week after Lula’s inauguration, rioters storm government buildings, drawing comparisons to the riot at the Capitol on January 6 when his closest ally, President Donald Trump, lost to Joe Biden in the 2020 election.
Trump has called the prosecution of his far-right ally a “witch-hunt” and made it a significant issue in US relations with Brazil by imposing severe tariffs on the nation as retribution.
On the heels of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in Kuala Lumpur last month, Trump and Lula had a “convenient” meeting that Brazil described as constructive, boosting optimism for improved relations following US tariff enforcement.

Nearly 12 million people are being forced to flee their homes in Sudan because of the worst displacement crisis in history.
Hundreds of thousands of Sudanese people are reportedly preparing to travel to eastern Chad because they think it will be safer and where they can get food. However, they are traveling to a nation where about 7 million people, at least 50% of them children, already require aid from the humanitarian system.
Every day, thousands of families visit Tine, a border town between Sudan and Chad.
Abdulsalam Abubakar, a Tine resident, informed Ahmed Idris that the same amount of money he used to purchase food and other essential items a few days ago will no longer be able to purchase the same amount.
He said, “Nothing in the market here is cheap, everything is expensive.”
The food producers claim that the price of food is going up because of the dramatically increased demand during the most severe wartimes.
More than 10,000 Sudanese people came here after their country collapsed, according to trader Khadijah Kurgule, adding that “now food is expensive.”
She told Al Jazeera, “There are goods everywhere, but people can’t afford them.”
More than one million people have entered Chad since the start of the Sudanese war thanks to the thousands who have fled the RSF-led mass killings in and around El-Fasher.
Idris, a journalist for Al Jazeera, claimed that Sudan’s refugees’ constant arrivals have increased the need for food, shelter, and water.
He claimed that humanitarian aid workers worry that this could cause host and refugee communities to rift.
Long lines have developed at distribution points for water and aid collection, and overextended hospitals and schools have also become a common occurrence.
UNHCR representative on the ground, John-Paul Habamungu, claimed that there are no schools for the majority of the new Sudanese population.
“We lack the funds to build, at least temporarily, learning spaces. He claimed that we lack the resources to find teachers.
Aid workers have warned that the worst may still be coming as the conflict in Sudan continues to rage indefinitely, despite the UN’s efforts to relocate several thousand refugees to nearby areas.
Abdul Rahim Hamdan Dagalo, the deputy leader of the RSF, and Mohamed Hamdan “Hemedti” Dagalo’s brother, were subject to sanctions by the European Union on Thursday for crimes committed during the El-Fasher storm.
According to the European Commission, the sanctions place Dagalo under an EU-wide travel ban, freeze potential assets, and forbid him from making indirect or direct profits from other resources within the bloc’s 27 nations.
