The acting president of the lower house of Brazil’s Congress has moved to annul the impeachment process against President Dilma Rousseff, alleging that the chamber’s previous vote against her was flawed.
Waldir Maranhão, the acting president of Brazil’s Chamber of Deputies, on Monday decided to overturn the body’s April 17 decision to send the impeachment process to the Senate for a possible trial.
Monday’s news upends an already tumultuous process that was expected to see Ms. Rousseff suspended from office later this week. It is still not clear whether Mr. Maranhão’s decision could affect a Senate vote that had been expected to take place this week. Senate leadership couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.
