Brazilian Police Investigate Possible Secret Trip by Flavio Bolsonaro to Argentina

radio.uchile.cl (Spanish) —

Brazilian Federal Police are investigating whether Senator and former presidential candidate Flavio Bolsonaro left the country for Argentina, despite being notified of a travel ban and ordered to surrender his passport amid money laundering investigations. Authorities confirmed Bolsonaro did not pass through any Brazilian immigration checkpoint, according to O Globo. A Gulfstream G400 aircraft landed in Puerto Iguazú from Buenos Aires, but its departure was delayed awaiting a passenger, with no records confirming Bolsonaro entered Argentine soil. Bolsonaro faces multiple probes, including alleged corruption tied to a film about Jair Bolsonaro, suspected money laundering linked to a close associate, and claims of foreign campaign financing and social media algorithm manipulation.
