Brazilian police are investigating top allies of former President Jair Bolsonaro for allegedly attempting to overturn the results of the 2022 election, with searches conducted at their homes and offices. Bolsonaro himself was ordered to forfeit his passport, although he was not the direct target of the search. The investigation is linked to an alleged criminal organization that sought to orchestrate a coup d’etat to keep Bolsonaro in power after his election defeat. This comes amid ongoing probes into alleged spying on political opponents during Bolsonaro's administration.
