Brazil's Federal Police have indicted former President Jair Bolsonaro for money laundering and criminal association in connection with undeclared diamonds from Saudi Arabia. The Supreme Court is awaiting the police report to decide on filing charges. This is Bolsonaro's second indictment since leaving office, with the previous one in May for falsifying his Covid-19 vaccination certificate. The legal threats against the ex-leader are seen as both a victory by his opponents and as political persecution by his supporters.
