Brazil: Supreme Court justice unseals probe into Bolsonaro biopic, citing suspected criminal funding

Source: ABC News

“A Brazilian Supreme Court justice on Sunday unsealed an investigation into the production of a film about former President Jair Bolsonaro, pointing in his decision to suspicions the movie’s financing had ties to a criminal network. The suspicions laid out in Justice Flávio Dino’s decision may complicate matters further for Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro, only weeks before October’s national elections in which he will challenge President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Sen. Bolsonaro, the ex-leader’s eldest son, is under investigation for corruption, money laundering and tax evasion for receiving millions of dollars from a disgraced banker to finance the biopic about his father, titled ‘Dark Horse.'” (09/14/26)
