Police in Brazil swooped on the home and political headquarters of Jair Bolsonaro early Friday, searching the properties and ordering the former president to wear an electronic ankle tag. The right-winger and ally of US President Donald Trump was also barred from speaking to foreign officials or approaching embassies,

Bolsonaro, on trial and accused of leading an alleged attempt to stage a coup to overturn the 2022 election he lost, described wearing the ankle monitor as an "extreme humiliation."
