The senior Facebook Inc executive arrested in Brazil should be released on Wednesday after spending nearly 24 hours in jail due to a dispute over a court order demanding data from the company’s WhatsApp messaging service in a drug-trafficking investigation.
A press representative for the court in Sergipe state handling the case said Facebook Vice President for Latin America Diego Dzodan would likely be released in Sao Paulo within hours after a judge overturned a lower court decision.
