Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro has been charged with orchestrating a plot to remain in office despite losing the 2022 election. The charges, handed down on Tuesday, accuse Bolsonaro of five crimes, including a coup attempt. Additionally, 33 individuals linked to Bolsonaro have also been charged.
Bolsonaro, who is already banned from running in elections until 2030 due to previous misconduct, denies any wrongdoing and claims he is a victim of political persecution.
