BRAZIL’S Supreme Court rejected appeals filed by former President Jair Bolsonaro on Thursday.

Mr Bolsonaro was attempting to remove two of the judges who will examine his complaint over allegations of involvement in an attempted coup.

Mr Bolsonaro’s defence team attempted to remove Flavio Dino, President Luiz Inacio “Lula” da Silva’s former justice minister, and Cristiano Zanin, the president’s former personal lawyer, over alleged impartiality.
