<h1>Five-member panel majority convicts former president on five counts over alleged 2022 coup attempt; one vote still pending</h1> A majority of a five-justice Supreme Court panel convicted a former president on five counts for allegedly attempting a coup to remain in office after a 2022 electoral defeat; three justices voted guilty, one voted to acquit and one vote remains pending. The panel will set a sentence-potentially decades in prison-after all votes are cast; the defendant is under house arrest and plans to appeal to the full 11-justice court. The case deepens domestic political polarization, raises the prospect of congressional moves for amnesty, and has prompted international diplomatic and sanction-related tensions.
