Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro's whereabouts unknown after missing passport surrender deadline

hindustantimes.com —

Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro's whereabouts are unknown after he missed a Tuesday deadline to surrender his passports, following a Supreme Court order issued after his election loss to President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Bolsonaro, 45, refused to concede and alleges election fraud without evidence. He was served the order on Monday, and his last public statement was a video that day. Authorities have not confirmed if he complied, and his representative did not respond to requests for comment. The court order came after Bolsonaro challenged the election results, calling for annulment over polling disruptions. He also filed a request to invalidate Lula and Vice President Geraldo Alckmin's candidacies. His father, former President Jair Bolsonaro, is under house arrest for a coup attempt.
