Flavio Bolsonaro Says Brazil Federal Police Asked for His Passports

Flavio Bolsonaro said he will comply and denied planning to flee as police acted under an order he linked to Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes.

  • On Monday, Federal Police officers in Brasília ordered Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro to surrender his passports and barred him from leaving Brazil following a visit to his imprisoned father.
  • The restrictions follow Flavio's defeat to President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Sunday's runoff election, with authorities citing remarks by US-based former lawmaker Eduardo Bolsonaro regarding potential flight.
  • In a video posted to Instagram, Flavio said, "I will hand over my passports," calling the order "a clear attempt to intimidate me."
  • Investigations into money laundering and financial irregularities continue for Flavio under Supreme Court Justice Alexandre, though he has not been convicted of any crimes.
  • Refusing to concede the election, Flavio promised to organize the opposition: "To withstand the chaos, I'm going to organise the opposition," he said.
