Defeated presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro has arrived in the US, hours after Brazil cancelled his passports, sources have told the BBC.
The right-wing candidate left the country after its Supreme Court ordered that he surrender his passports amid an investigation into alleged money laundering. Bolsonaro has not been charged and has denied the allegations.
His passports were cancelled on Tuesday after he missed a deadline to hand them over to authorities, prompting widespread speculation that he may have left Brazil.
