BRASMLIA, Sept 1 (APP/AFP) – Brazil’s ex-president Dilma Rousseff filed a Supreme Court challenge Thursday asking for the overturning of a Senate impeachment vote that removed her from office. The appeal, filed by Rousseff’s lawyer Jose Eduardo Caredozo and seen by AFP, demands “the immediate suspension of the effects of the Senate decision.” The Senate voted Wednesday to convict Rousseff on charges of having illegally manipulated government accounts, stripping her of her office and replacing her with her bitter enemy and former vice president Michel Temer
