Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has left a hospital after undergoing surgery for a hernia and treatment for recurring hiccups. He is returning to a federal police facility in Brasilia to continue serving a 27-year sentence for plotting a coup following the 2022 election. A Supreme Court judge denied a request for house arrest on health grounds, stating his condition had not worsened. Bolsonaro, who served from 2019-2022, has faced legal challenges related to his post-presidency actions and health complications from a past injury.
