Bolsonaro faces legal trouble over undisclosed diamond gifts.

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is under investigation for allegedly trying to sneak two sets of expensive diamond jewelry into Brazil without paying taxes and improperly preventing the items from being incorporated into the presidency’s public collection. Authorities are also looking into whether he enlisted public officials to try to bypass customs. Bolsonaro could potentially face trial on several counts, including influence peddling, embezzlement, money laundering, and corruption. He is also the subject of a dozen investigations by Brazil’s electoral court and a Supreme Court-led investigation on the spread of alleged falsehoods and disinformation in Brazil.
