Bolsonaro remains silent after election loss amid protests

Brazil's Supreme Court has ordered the police to clear blockades set
up by President Jair Bolsonaro's supporters in the aftermath of his
electoral defeat.

Bolsonaro has not yet commented since leftist Luiz Inacio Lula da
Silva narrowly won a bitterly fought presidential runoff race on
Sunday.

The right-wing president has previously questioned the integrity of
Brazil's electoral system spurring speculation over whether he'll
refuse to concede.
