The timing of that seems interesting enough but within hours of the swearing in ceremony, the new government rescinds the permission.\u00a0 And to keep the excitement level right up there, the privately chartered plane is stopped from leaving while the Lobato family is on board.\u00a0 Racy stuff.\u00a0 That was yesterday.\u00a0 Rogerio spent the night on the plane parked on the tarmac while lawyers were tackling the issue.<\/p>\n
