In a dramatic political twist, Brazil’s former president Jair Bolsonaro has been formally charged with orchestrating a coup attempt following his 2022 election defeat. The country’s prosecutor-general revealed the indictment on Tuesday, implicating Bolsonaro and 33 others in a scheme to undermine democracy. Charges include manipulating the electoral system and mobilizing supporters to challenge the legitimacy of the vote.
This isn’t Bolsonaro’s first legal rodeo . In 2023, he was convicted of abusing presidential powers and spreading misinformation about Brazil’s voting process, resulting in an eight-year ban from public office. The latest charges could further tarnish his legacy and reshape the nation’s political landscape ahead of regional elections.
Analysts say the case highlights Latin America’s ongoing struggle with post-election tensions—a trend echoing global debates about trust in democratic institutions. Could this trial become a Netflix-worthy political thriller? Stay tuned.
