Tens of thousands of people across Brazil marched in protest against a bill aiming to reduce the 27-year prison sentence of former president Jair Bolsonaro, who was convicted of plotting a coup. The proposed legislation, set to be considered by the Senate on Wednesday, could see Bolsonaro granted parole in just over two years.

• Approximately 19,000 people protested on Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach, while around 14,000 gathered on Sao Paulo's Paulista Avenue.
• The protests were organized by left-wing groups and activists, including iconic singer Caetano Veloso.
• The bill would also benefit Bolsonaro's supporters imprisoned for storming government buildings on January 8, 2023, echoing the US Capitol events.
