The order comes a few days after President Trump pardoned more than 1500 people convicted of attacking the attack on January 6th.
The federal judge of the United States forbade several prominent persons who participated in the rebellion at Capitol 6 January 2021. Entering Washington, DC, without the permission of the court, as a condition for their release from prison.
On Friday, Judge Amit Meht from the US District Court for Columbia District has rendered a verdict related to Stewart RhodesFormer leader of the extremely right group Oath Kepers, and seven others.
“You must not consciously enter the District of Columbia without the previous court permission,” Mehta’s command said.

On January 6, the year, Trump’s supporters attacked the police and fell into the building in an attempt to cancel the defeat of the Republicans in the 2020 election.
Rhodes, who got 18 -year -old penaltyHe was one of the 14 accused who saw that Trump had mitigated their sentence instead of receiving a complete pardon. The mitigation of the sentence does not liberate, but reduces the sentence with which the defendant can face.
Trump announced replacements and pardons on Monday, in the first hours of his second term. A day later, Rhodes was released from prison.
Then he visited the US capitol on Wednesday to meet at least one legislator, according to The Associated Press. The news agency reported that Rhodes also spoke with other officials and defended his actions on January 6th.
“I’m just guilty that I opposed those who destroy the country,” Rhodes told reporters, repeating Trump’s false claims that the 2020 elections were stolen by a huge fraud. “We took up our country because we knew the elections were stolen. Biden did not receive 81 million votes. ”
Experts expressed concern that pardons could legitimize political violence.
Among the pardons is Enrique Tarrio, a former leader of the extreme right -wing proud boy who was sentenced to 22 years in prison for rebel conspiracies and other crimes.
Ever since he was released and returned to his home in Florida, Tarrio has appeared in the media on the far right newspaper Infowars, promising “retaliation”.
“People who have done this need to feel warmth,” Tarrio said. “They should put them behind bars and must be prosecuted.”
Trump himself tilted the rhetoric of retribution and revenge, suggesting that the legislators involved in the Congress investigation on the attack on the capitol should investigate themselves.
He also indicated that they could face criminal charges for betrayal and “military courts”.
“For what they did, honestly, they should go to jail,” Trump said in a TV show Meet The Press in December.
