Brazil indicts former President Bolsonaro and 36 others for alleged coup attempt
Brazil's federal police have indicted former President Jair Bolsonaro and 36 others for allegedly attempting a coup after his 2022 election defeat. The case has been sent to the Supreme Court for further action. The indictment includes several of Bolsonaro's former aides, such as his running mate and former military leaders. The investigation began last year and has led to recent arrests of military personnel and a police officer. Bolsonaro faces multiple legal challenges, including accusations of smuggling and falsifying vaccination records. He is currently barred from running in the 2026 elections and could face jail time if convicted.
