Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, currently serving a prison sentence for an attempted coup, has successfully undergone surgery for an inguinal hernia, as announced by his wife. The 70-year-old former leader, who has been incarcerated since November, left prison temporarily to have the procedure done at the DF Star Hospital in Brasilia. The operation went smoothly, without complications, according to his wife Michelle’s statement on Instagram. Bolsonaro’s 27-year prison term did not prevent him from seeking medical attention, as court permission was granted after federal police doctors confirmed the necessity of the surgery for his painful condition.
