Former president Jair Bolsonaro was discharged and left DF Star Hospital late this Thursday afternoon (1st). 
A convoy made up of scouts from the Military Police of the Federal District and unmarked black cars recently left the garage of the hospital located in Asa Sul, central region of the federal capital, a few kilometers away from the Federal Police Superintendence, where Bolsonaro has been detained since November.

Bolsonaro had been admitted to the unit since the 24th and was subjected to a bilateral inguinal hernia surgery.
Next, the medical team assessed the need to perform other procedures to contain hiccups. Yesterday (31), the former president underwent an endoscopy, when doctors found the persistence of esophagitis and gastritis.
Doctors accompanying the former president reported on Wednesday (31) an improvement in the hiccups and now they had scheduled the discharge for today (1st) if there were no new health problems.
With his hospital release, Bolsonaro returns to the Federal Police Superintendence, in Brasília, where he has been imprisoned since November after being sentenced to 27 years and 3 months for the coup plot.
This Thursday morning, the minister of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) Alexandre de Moraes denied request made by the former president’s defense who requested house arrest of a humanitarian nature after discharge.
In the decision, Moraes assesses that Bolsonaro’s defense did not present “supervening facts that could rule out the determining reasons for the decision to reject the request for humanitarian house arrest made on December 19, 2025”.
The document reinforces that full access for Bolsonaro’s doctors remains authorized, with the necessary medicines, including a physiotherapist, “and the delivery of food produced by his family members”.
