    Brazilian Jan. 8 fugitives said to be hiding in Argentina

    Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro has asked his friend Milei for asylum for some of his father's followers

    Brazilian authorities have requested Argentina's help to arrest around 143 fugitives who have been tried and convicted for their involvement in the Jan. 8, 2023, riots in Brasilia. The escapees are believed to be supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro who fled to Argentina in the hope of being granted political asylum given President Javier Milei's affinity with the conservative retired Army captain.
