After the presidential election: Money laundering investigations: Travel ban for Flávio Bolsonaro
The defeated presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro is not allowed to leave Brazil. This order is issued in a money laundering case - the senator sees this as an attempt to intimidate him.
Flávio Bolsonaro, the defeated presidential candidate, has been ordered to surrender his passports, including his diplomatic passport, within 24 hours by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes. This is due to an ongoing money laundering investigation linked to companies and online sports betting. Flávio Bolsonaro is also prohibited from contacting lawyer Willer Tomaz, who is also under investigation.
The move comes after Flávio Bolsonaro's loss to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the presidential election, with Lula winning 51.8% to 48.2% of the vote.
