Brazil's Federal Police (PF) have increased border controls amid speculation that defeated presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro may leave the country. Bolsonaro is required to surrender his passport by Tuesday, as ordered by Alexandre de Moraes, a judge at the Supreme Federal Court (STF). Moraes gave Bolsonaro 24 hours to comply with the order, at the request of the police. The order comes after the presidential election on Sunday.
