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.

As the humanitarian situation in the area worsens, thousands more Sudanese people are fleeing the country’s bloody war.
According to the most recent data that the UN has confirmed, more than 4.3 million Sudanese have emigrated to neighboring countries since the government-aligned Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) joined the civil war in April 2023.

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.

Arsenal and Tottenham take on Tottenham in the North London derby, the standout Premier League game of the weekend, with Spurs attempting to deny their bitter rivals’ title hopes while reviving their own sluggish season.
list of 4 itemsend of list
League leaders Arsenal are 26 points ahead of second-placed Man City, but their streak of 10 straight victories and eight straight clean sheets came to an end with a 2-2 draw at Sunderland before the international break.
Spurs are fifth with 18 points going into the weekend, which probably flatters Thomas Frank’s side, who have been incredibly creative and prone to defensive errors.
Spurs travel to the Emirates with the best away record in the league this season despite dominating recent derbies that were unbeaten in the last six.
Manager Mikel Arteta confirmed on Friday that Gabriel Magalhaes, a defender for Arsenal, will be out of action for “weeks” due to a broken ankle sustained while on international duty.
The Brazil center-back has always been present in the Premier League for the Gunners’ back line, which has allowed just five goals in 11 games. However, he injured his thigh during Brazil’s 2-0 friendly win over Senegal at the Emirates Stadium last weekend.
He’s our leader in our back line, which is a blow to me, Arteta said.
The good news is that there are excellent options and that people must now stand up and carry out their duties.
Arteta spoke to Arsenal’s internal media about the enthusiasm for the north London derby and how honored he is to play in these events.
We’ve changed a lot over the years, and it’s just beautiful, especially when we play in front of our people, he said, because we know what it means to them.
It’s just a privilege to play those kinds of games because of the energy they’re going to bring, the team’s energy in every single action. We are looking forward to Sunday.
Spurs are still far behind their archrivals, according to the manager of Tottenham, who believes they can disrupt Arteta’s side on Sunday.
Frank, who will be getting his first taste of the derby, said to reporters, “The interesting thing is that probably both Mikel and I would like a little bit more of a controlled game, but it will probably end up completely madhouse.”
“I anticipate a challenging [match], but one that can go anywhere,” the player said.
With an emphasis on set-pieces and data that were so effective at Brentford, Frank is regarded as a much more pragmatic coach than Ange Postecoglou, the coach he replaced in the close season.
Frank won’t be telling his side on Sunday to just hope to get a point.
Because chaos can be good, Frank remarked, “Avoid controlled chaos, or chaos we like to create, if that makes sense.” “Chaos can be transitions, high-pressure sets-piece second phases, and all of those are areas we would like to exploit if we can,” he said.
By the way, we never want a goal of 0-0. Even though it might come to an end, we will always try to win. Always, always, always. “
The Dane said that will give them confidence ahead of Sunday’s showdown after Frank’s side took 13 points from five games.
By a considerable margin, “Arsenal are at the top of the table,” Frank said. Although they have been around for a while, we need to do everything to reverse that.
“There will be one game on Sunday,” says the coach. I’ll try my best to defeat them.
Spurs and Arsenal have fought each other on 211 occasions, with Arsenal winning 89 of those matches and Tottenham winning 67, with 55 of those games ending in draws.
Tottenham have won just two of their last ten meetings with Arsenal since December 2020, and the Gunners did it twice last year over their rivals last year.
Tottenham have won the Premier League twice in the last 15 years, winning with a 3-2 victory over their neighbors at the Emirates, but they haven’t won at the Emirates since a League Cup game in 2018.
In the Premier League, Spurs last defeated Arsenal 3-3 in May 2022.
Arsenal will miss Gabriel, but Piero Hincapie and Cristhian Mosquera, who have been signed this summer, offer strong backup options.
Martin Odegaard, the club’s captain, is still out with a knee injury, while Kai Havertz, who has recovered from a relapse, has been ruled out. After suffering an ACL tear, Forward Gabriel Jesus is slowly recovering, but he won’t be expected to return until the new year.
As they continue to recover from injuries, left-back Riccardo Calafiori, wingers Gabriel Martinelli and Noni Madueke, and striker Viktor Gyokeres are major doubts.
Eberechi Eze will likely start on the left wing while Leandro Trossard is likely to receive the nod.
Raya, Timber, Saliba, Hincapie, Calafiori, Eze, Zubimendi, Rice, Saka, Merino, Trossard, and others
Randal Kolo Muani, who was injured in the team’s 2-2 draw with Manchester United last time out, is back.
Pape Matar Sarr is also available in the Spurs squad despite suffering a broken foot while playing for Senegal, as is midfielder Lucas Bergvall, who was forced to leave the Sweden squad.
Mohammed Kudus’ recovery from a knock against the Gunners is still a mystery.
As they recover from injuries, Kota Takai, and Radu Dragusin are all facing serious doubts.
Due to longer-term issues, Spurs are still without Yves Bissouma, James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke.
Nepal’s aviation crisis is investigated by 101 East, which takes to the skies.
An aviation emergency is brewing in Nepal.
One of the world’s most hazardous places to fly is the South Asian nation, which is located in the Himalayas.
Nearly 40 crashes involving all types of aircraft, from helicopters to double-engine planes, have claimed hundreds of lives since 2010.
Nepal’s tourism sector, one of the country’s main economic drivers, benefits enormously from aviation, but critics claim that more people must be killed before it can be.
