Read the article by Marcos Fuchs, the executive director at Instituto ProBono, and Henrique Apolinário, advisor to Conectas’s program Confronting Institutional Violence, published in the newspaper Poder 360, stating their opinion on Bolsonaro government’s project to support torture and dismantle the SNPCT (National System Prevention and Fight against Torture).
