Highways in Mato Grosso, Rondônia and Paraná still have blockages caused by anti-democratic protests in the early afternoon of this Monday (21).

Mato Grosso leads the number of interdictions: there are 11 on federal highways in the state, four of them with total interruption of the flow. In Rondônia, there are eight blockage points.

On the BR-277, in Paraná, at noon there was a queue of 13 kilometers near the Port of Paranaguá. Protesters completely blocked the track.

Minas Gerais even had a demonstration early in the morning at km 485 of the BR-381, near Betim, but the lanes were released. The numbers are from the PRF (Federal Highway Police) of each state.

The anti-democratic acts of supporters of Jair Bolsonaro (PL) gained momentum again last week. On Saturday night (19), there were 29 blockades in the country – 8 of them total.

According to the PRF, 1,236 interdictions have been undone since the end of the electoral dispute, when demonstrators began to protest against the result of the polls, which gave victory to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT). Currently, there are also Bolsonarist groups camped in front of barracks in the country.

On November 12, the Minister of the STF (Federal Supreme Court) Alexandre de Moraes ordered the blocking of bank accounts linked to 43 people and companies suspected of involvement with the acts.

On the morning of last Sunday (20), the PRF and the PF (Federal Police) served three search and seizure warrants and one preventive arrest warrant in the city of Dourados, in Mato Grosso do Sul. The measure is part of an inquiry that investigates the blockages.
