In brief
The defeated presidential candidate failed to surrender his documents to police investigating money laundering allegations. Brazilian police cancelled Flávio Bolsonaro's passports after he missed a Supreme Court deadline to hand them over as part of a money laundering investigation. Originally reported by BBC News.
Court orders passports surrendered
On Monday, Brazil's Supreme Court ordered Flávio Bolsonaro to hand his passports to police within twenty four hours as part of an investigation into alleged money laundering, which he denies.
Bolsonaro says he will stay
At the time, Bolsonaro said he had no plans to leave the country and insisted he would stay in Brazil to lead the opposition to left-wing President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
Deadline passes, passports cancelled
The deadline passed without Bolsonaro surrendering the passports. Police have now cancelled them, prompting speculation he may have left the country.
Border checks find no trace
Federal officers checked border crossings to establish if Bolsonaro travelled to neighbouring Argentina. Argentine authorities told the BBC there is no record of him entering their country.
Multiple investigations underway
Bolsonaro faces investigation for alleged corruption over financing of a film about his father, former President Jair Bolsonaro. Brazil's Supreme Court also ordered police to probe his electoral campaign over alleged foreign funding.
