Former President Jair Bolsonaro from Brazil is currently under round-the-clock watch at his home. He is facing accusations of leading a criminal organization with the goal of preventing his opponent, Lula, from taking power after the closely contested October 2022 elections. Bolsonaro narrowly lost to Lula in the elections, and the accusations against him have led to the restrictive measure. The former president is under house arrest pending further investigation into the alleged criminal activities attributed to him. The situation has caused significant political turmoil in Brazil and raised concerns about the country’s democratic institutions.
