A 54-year-old gas 駅／配置する 経営者／支配人 from the northern 明言する／公表する of Para, Sousa told police that Bolsonaro's （種を）蒔くing of 選挙 疑問s 奮起させるd his Dec. 12 旅行 to the 資本／首都.
After arriving in Brasilia, he joined an 野営 of プロの／賛成の-Bolsonaro 選挙-deniers outside the army （警察，軍隊などの）本部 who were calling for a クーデター.
"My trip to Brasilia was so I could join the 抗議するs in 前線 of the army （警察，軍隊などの）本部 and wait for the 武装した 軍隊s to 権限を与える me to （問題を）取り上げる 武器 and destroy 共産主義," he said, によれば the copy of his 証言.
