Since the evening of last Monday (4), the area around the residence has been monitored by a strong police presence.
247 - Residents of the upscale condominium where former president Jair Bolsonaro lives in Brasília have expressed dissatisfaction with the disruptions caused by his house arrest.

The messages, initially revealed by [source name missing], were shared online. UOLThey show the growing discomfort with the intense activity of supporters of the former president at the entrance of the residential complex.
Since the evening of last Monday (4), the area around the residence has been monitored by a strong police presence and has been taken over by honking, horns and gatherings of Bolsonaro supporters. The condominium, located in Jardim Botânico, a prime area of the federal capital, houses high-standard homes with squares, parks and a controlled security system.
"It's crazy out here!! I want to get home. Honking horns, police, bugles, it's hell," one resident complained at 23:16 PM in the group. Another added: "If they set up camps, we're screwed, nobody can get in anymore."
The actions of the Military Police were also criticized: “It’s absurd to have this kind of commotion at this hour. What’s worse is seeing so many police officers and not dispersing the crowd,” stated one participant. In response, another resident commented that the former president’s continued presence at the location could be detrimental to the security of the condominium itself.
The tone of the messages shifted from concern to irony. “They could just take him straight to Papuda prison. He’s going there anyway, isn’t he? At least give us and the other 200 million some peace,” wrote one group member at 23:41 PM. The message was liked by seven other residents.
