SAO PAULO (AP) — Judges on Brazil ‘s Supreme Court voted Friday to put one of the sons of former President Jair Bolsonaro on trial on charges of obstructing justice in connection with his father’s attempted coup case.

Justices Flávio Dino and Cristiano Zanin joined colleague Alexandre de Moraes — who has been appointed to gather preliminary information in the case — in accepting an indictment by prosecutors alleging that Eduardo Bolsonaro used violence or serious threats to interfere with a legal proceeding.

If convicted, he could face one to four years in prison and a fine.

Prosecutors said that Eduardo Bolsonaro tried to interfere in his father’s trial by urging foreign governments to pressure Brazilian officials, including with threats against the country’s economy.
