Brazil's Ex-President Jair Bolsonaro Indicted for Alleged Money Laundering Over Undeclared Diamonds

ai generated text

Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro has been indicted by the Federal Police for money laundering and criminal association related to undeclared diamonds from Saudi Arabia. This is his second indictment since leaving office, following a previous one in May for falsifying his Covid vaccination certificate. According to reports, Bolsonaro allegedly attempted to smuggle a $3.2 million stash of diamonds into Brazil and then secretly sell two luxury watches in the United States. The Federal Police report with the indictment has yet to be received by Brazil's Supreme Court, where it will be analyzed by Prosecutor-General Paulo Gonet before any charges are filed.

    1. The Federal Police knows I did nothing related to what they are investigating, but they still want to punish me because I provide unwavering and permanent defence for former President Bolsonaro.

    1. This is a year of mayoral elections. Moraes and his fellow justices know that prosecuting a former president who remains a popular man would be even tougher in a year like this.
    2. This indictment is another piece of the puzzle. It gives one more problem to Bolsonaro. There will be more.
