Bolsonaro Scion Faces Corruption Probe Ahead of Brazil’s Vote

Brazilian Senator Flávio Bolsonaro is under investigation for corruption, money laundering and tax evasion after allegedly receiving 61 million reais from a banker tied to a major scandal to fund an unreleased film about Jair Bolsonaro; unsealed court documents query how the funds were used and reported, potentially hurting his tight race against Lula as Brazil’s October elections approach. The probe also touches on possible involvement by other Bolsonaro family members and the Banco Master saga that led to heightened scrutiny.
