Brazil's Flavio Bolsonaro Ordered to Surrender Passports Amid Probe, Reportedly Leaves for USPreviousNext

Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro was ordered by the Supreme Court to surrender his passports and barred from leaving the country amid a money laundering investigation, which he denies. After missing the deadline to comply, his passports were canceled. Reports indicate he has left Brazil for the United States, though authorities have not confirmed his exit through official migration points. Bolsonaro lost the recent presidential election to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and has not conceded, alleging voting irregularities and seeking to annul the results.
