Brazil’s ex-president Bolsonaro taken to hospital after feeling
unwell, son says

Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro was taken to hospital on
Tuesday after feeling unwell, his eldest son, Sen. Flávio Bolsonaro,
said on X.
The former leader was suffering a severe bout of hiccups, vomiting and
low blood pressure, according to his son.
“I ask for everyone’s prayers so that it is nothing serious,” the
younger Bolsonaro said.
Former first lady Michelle Bolsonaro said her husband underwent some
tests and is currently on intravenous medication. “Everything will be
all right!” she said on Instagram.
The news comes less than a week after the former president was
convicted of plotting a coup d’etat, which prosecutors said included
plans to potentially assassinate current President Luiz Inácio Lula da
Silva.
Bolsonaro, 70, was sentenced to more than 27 years in prison. He has
denied wrongdoing.
The far-right politician has previously been for pain related to a
wound sustained when he was stabbed on the campaign trail seven years
ago.
It’s unclear if his latest hospitalization is related to that attack.
CNN has reached out to the hospital for more information.
On Sunday, Bolsonaro also went to the hospital for a series of tests
and a medical procedure to remove skin lesions, reported.
Bolsonaro has been under since August for allegedly failing to comply
with restrictions imposed on him by the court as the trial was
underway, including on the use of social media and cell phones.
His son said Bolsonaro was accompanied to the hospital by correctional
police officers who guard his home in Brasília. “It was an
emergency,” he said.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
