Agents will examine the circumstances of the former president’s stay at the Hungarian embassy in Brasília Feb. 12–14, a few days after the outbreak of operation Tempus Veritatis, which looks into an alleged criminal organization involved in an attempted coup d’état in Brazil.
The charges filed by prosecutors list the crimes of money laundering, misrepresentation, and use of false documents within the scope of Operation Nexus, conducted by the Civil Police of the Federal District.
According to his vaccination card, the former president received his vaccine on July 19, 2021, in São Paulo, but he was not actually there on that date.
The police also mention assemblies at the Alvorada Palace, the presidential residence, attended by Bolsonaro, which included discussions about the military’s adherence to the plot for a coup d’état.
Operation Tempus Veritatis is targeting several military personnel who were part of former President Jair Bolsonaro’s government. The Federal Police are investigating the existence of an alleged criminal organization that may have been involved in an attempted coup.
