Jeddah: England batter Harry Brook has been signed by Delhi Capitals for Rs 6.25 crore in the IPL 2025 Auction here at the Abadi Al Johar Arena in Jeddah on Sunday. Brook pulled out of the last edition of the IPL due to his grandmother’s demise. He was not retained by Sunrisers Hyderabad ahead of the auction and listed himself at a base price of Rs 2 crore. Brook has scored 707 runs in 39 T20Is, averaging over 30, with an impressive strike rate of 146.07. In overall T20 cricket, he has amassed 3,358 runs at an average of 33.58 and a strike rate of 150.04. Brook’s T20 career includes three centuries and 13 half-centuries, highlighting his ability to score big in the shortest format. It was Delhi’s third signing of the day after roping in KL Rahul and Mitchell Starc for Rs 14 crore and Rs 11.75 crore, respectively. Meanwhile, New Zealand wicketkeeper-batter Devon Conway rejoined Chennai Super Kings after the franchise used Right to Match (option) for him on the auction table. He was bagged for Rs 6.25 crore by the five-time IPL champions. Conway made his IPL debut with CSK in the 2022 season and scored 252 runs in seven games. He missed the last edition of the IPL due to an injury after scoring 672 runs in 16 games in the 2023 season. In 50 T20Is so far, he has scored 1408 runs including 10 half-centuries. –Prior to this week's installment of "Monday Night Football," ESPN personality Jason Kelce talked about his experiences going up against Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs. This wasn't just a random topic to spark conversation about the Kelce family. ESPN's Scott Van Pelt wanted to hear Jason's perspective on sibling rivalries because Monday night's game featured the Harbaugh brothers, Jim and John. They have their respective teams, the Los Angeles Chargers and Baltimore Ravens, in playoff contention. Even though Kelce has a ton of respect for his younger brother, he admit on national TV that it was "annoying" competing against Travis. "It's annoying is what it is," Jason said. "Because he's so good, that's why. I was only fortunate to be Trav once. When you're out there on the field getting ready to play your brother, there's something about seeing your brother there that you get these flashbacks to being out in the backyard playing football again." "It's annoying. ... They were very good." — @JasonKelce on playing against Travis Kelce and the Chiefs 🤣 pic.twitter.com/poANNqEdgQ Unfortunately for Jason, his squad fell short to Travis and the Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII. The Philadelphia Eagles had a 24-14 lead at halftime before ultimately crumbling in the final quarter of the big game. Travis Kelce had six receptions for 81 yards and a touchdown in Super Bowl LVII. Immediately after capturing the Lombardi Trophy, he embraced his older brother on the field. Ezra Shaw/Getty Images Last year, Travis talked about defeating Jason in the Super Bowl and how it was such a bittersweet moment. "It was weird, man. It was weird," Travis said . "It was a weird feeling, it was like ... getting the second one was like, 'This is me! I am him! I do this! This is what I [expletive] do!' And then you see your brother and you're like, '[Expletive] I just took that opportunity away from him.' You know how he feels. Because I lost a [expletive] Super Bowl, and that [expletive] sucks. Going into the Tampa Bay Super Bowl, that [expletive] was the worst feeling ever." Despite all the jokes they've made in public, it's clear the Kelce brothers have nothing but love for each other.

Chairman of SC Young Republican to resign following nude photo scandalWestern Georgia Wolves vs. Utah Valley Wolverines: How to watch online, live stream info, start time, TV channelBy LARRY NEUMEISTER, Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — In an angry outburst in a New York courtroom, Rudy Giuliani accused a judge Tuesday of making wrong assumptions about him as he tries to comply with an order requiring him to turn over most of his assets to two election poll workers who won a libel case against him. U.S. District Judge Lewis J. Liman responded by saying he’s not going to let the former New York City mayor and onetime presidential candidate blurt things out anymore in court unless he’s a sworn witness. The interruption to an otherwise routine pretrial hearing in Manhattan came as the judge questioned Giuliani’s lawyer about why Giuliani has not yet provided the title to a car he has relinquished in his effort to satisfy a $148 million defamation judgment won by two former Georgia election workers. “Your client was the U.S. attorney for this district,” the judge said, referring to Giuliani’s years in the 1980s as the head of the federal prosecutor’s office in the Southern District of New York, as he suggested it was hard to believe that Giuliani was incapable of getting a duplicate title to the car. Giuliani learned forward and began speaking into a microphone, telling the judge he had applied for a duplicate copy of the car’s title but that it had not yet arrived. “The implication I’ve been not diligent about it is totally incorrect,” Giuliani said in a scolding tone. “The implication you make is against me and every implication against me is wrong.” Giuliani went on: “I’m not impoverished. Everything I have is tied up. I don’t have a car. I don’t have a credit card. I don’t have cash. I can’t get to bank accounts that truly would be mine because they have put ... stop orders on, for example, my Social Security account, which they have no right to do.” Liman responded by warning defense lawyers that the next time Giuliani interrupts a hearing, “he’s not going to be permitted to speak and the court will take action.” The judge said Giuliani could either choose to represent himself or let lawyers do so, but “you can’t have hybrid representation.” If Giuliani wants to speak in court again, he can be put on the witness stand and be sworn as a witness, Liman added. The exchange came at a hearing in which the judge refused to delay a Jan. 16 trial over the disposition of Giuliani’s Florida residence and World Series rings. Those are two sets of assets that Giuliani is trying to shield from confiscation as part of Liman’s order to turn over many prized possessions to the poll workers. Earlier in the proceeding, defense attorney Joseph M. Cammarata asked Liman to delay the trial, which will be heard without a jury, for a month because of Giuliani’s “involvement” in inauguration planning for President-elect Donald Trump. “My client regularly consults and deals directly with President-elect Trump on issues that are taking place as the incoming administration is afoot as well as (the) inauguration,” Cammarata said. “My client wants to exercise his political right to be there.” The judge turned down the request, saying Giuliani’s “social calendar” was not a reason to postpone the trial. Giuliani, who once served as Trump’s personal attorney, was found liable last year for defaming two Georgia poll workers by falsely accusing them of tampering with ballots during the 2020 presidential election. The women said they faced death threats after Giuliani falsely claimed they sneaked in ballots in suitcases, counted ballots multiple times and tampered with voting machines.

Education loans have been growing at a notable pace in recent years and a further boost is expected with the newly launched ‘Pradhan Mantri Vidyalaxmi scheme’. Given the RBI report that education loan growth touched 17.6 per cent year-on-year (yoy) for the fortnight ending September 20, Bibekananda Panda, Senior Economist, State Bank of India (SBI), points out that it has outpaced the overall credit growth of 13 per cent and personal credit growth of 13.4 per cent. The PM Vidyalaxmi scheme is designed to offer collateral-free, guarantor-free education loans through a simple, transparent, student-friendly and fully digital application process, backed by a credit guarantee from the government. Panda expects such a loan structure to incentivise banks to expand their coverage. By reaching financial support to nearly 22 lakh meritorious students annually, the scheme will directly benefit those who gain admission to the nation’s top 860 higher educational institutions, he says. In addition to the government’s credit guarantee, the scheme includes an interest subvention of 3 per cent on loans up to ₹10 lakh for students with annual family income of up to ₹8 lakh and full interest subvention for students with annual family income of up to ₹4.5 lakh. Mislabelled agri loans face culling Why peer-to-peer lending has RBI on edge Gold loans: Test by fire “The new initiative aims to brighten the future of meritorious students from lower income strata. This approach is expected to encourage banks to expand in this segment and contribute to building human capital for a Viksit Bharat,” the SBI economist says. The push from non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) is also driving the growth in education loans. For NBFCs, education loans, especially for overseas study, will remain one of the fastest-growing segments, given the rising demand for higher education, according to analysts. “After robust growth of over 80 per cent and 70 per cent in fiscals 2023 and 2024 respectively, NBFCs’ education loan assets under management (AUM) rose to about ₹43,000 crore as on March 31, 2024. Their AUM is expected to grow at a healthy clip of 40-45 per cent to cross ₹60,000 crore this fiscal,” says Ajit Velonie, Senior Director, CRISIL Ratings. In terms of asset quality, the metrics are expected to remain stable despite country-specific concerns. The number of Indian students studying abroad is estimated to have doubled in the past five years to around 13.4 lakh. Only a tenth is funded by NBFCs, and even after including education loans from banks, the financed quantum is not much higher, according to Velonie. “What that indicates is that a large portion of overseas education is being funded through alternative means — informal financing, self-funding or perhaps other forms of loans. That shows that education loan companies have significant headroom for growth. Rising ticket sizes — due to ascending tuition fees, inflation and living expenses — are also tailwinds,” he adds. Demand for education loans is driven by a range of factors. The growing interest in pursuing higher studies in the US or Europe, especially for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) courses, is generating big-ticket loans of ₹30-74 lakh, and leading to a growth in the total portfolio outstanding. Apart from loans with collateral, which is the norm at public sector banks, students have access to collateral-free education loans from private sector banks and NBFCs based on their academic record, parents’ financial standing and credit bureau score. HDFC Bank, for example, offers such collateral-free education loans up to ₹50 lakh. Amid the robust growth in the education loan segment, banks are also turning cautious owing to the recessionary trend in the US and Europe, and the attendent challenges in the job market in these geographies. “We are watching the situation and our insights show there have been concerns in the US and the UK regarding internships and jobs over the last two quarters. There is a need to keep vigil over non-performing assets (NPAs). We also expect some dip in demand for overseas education loans if the current downward trend in the global economy continues,” says an Executive Director of a public sector bank. RBI data also flags worries over potential NPAs. According to its Financial Stability Report (June 2024), NPAs in education loans stood at 3.6 per cent, which is on the higher side in comparison with other personal credit segments such as auto loans and housing loans at 1.3 per cent and 1.1 per cent respectively.

NoneBritain's surgeons are backing The Mirror’s call to stop cowboy cosmetic procedures as a mum who came within an hour of death warns women to steer clear of having liquid BBLs in the UK. Survivor Bonnie-Louise Cooper, 27, is also backing our campaign to stop other mums suffering, fearing lives could be lost. Bonnie-Louise said she thought she was being sensible when she opted not to jet off to Turkey and have the cosmetic procedure in England instead. She opted for Lift Aesthetics from Essex, who describe Katie Price as their “beautiful client.” The firm has featured on the star’s social media accounts, with a TikTok video showing her having lip fillers and being in “safe hands”. But Bonnie feels differently having spent weeks in hospital last November because she suffered a deadly sepsis infection following a liquid BBL she'd organised with the firm. The mum said she was left fearing she would leave her five-year-old son an orphan. She says her nerves are still damaged and experiences numbness where she loses sensation in her legs and her feet change colour. She said: "I’m backing The Mirror campaign and speaking out to stop other women and mums getting hurt. This industry is madness." The young mum told of being left devastated and in tears after hearing Alice Webb, 33, had died in September after having a liquid Brazilian butt lift procedure (BBL) in Gloucestershire. The Royal College of Surgeons say they also fear deaths from “out of control” cosmetic firms and ‘practitioners.’ It is impossible to say how many ‘aesthetic practitioners’ there are operating in High Streets and from homes all around the country. But it is feared there now could be between 100,000 and 200,000. Professor Vivien Lees, Vice President of RCS England and consultant plastic surgeon told The Mirror: “The situation is out of control in the UK. "Cosmetic procedures must be regulated as soon as possible before there is another death. We are supporting this important campaign, to work together, to protect people seeking these treatments. “In the hands of an untrained person, these procedures place members of the public at significant risk of harm, injury and potential death. The resulting complications can be permanent, affecting more than just physical appearance. There may be psychological and social repercussions too. “More serious complications may result in the need for emergency medical care, with the NHS picking up the bill for this. It also seems untrained individuals, who are carrying out medical procedures in high-street beauty clinics, do not understand the risk of infection. Anyone carrying out these procedures must be able to deal with problems that may arise. The Government must act now. The risks are just too high for patients.” Their support for the campaign follows that from The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) and long-term campaigners Save Face, who have been fighting for change for years. Single mum, Bonnie-Louise, told The Mirror: “I thought I was doing the safe thing by not going to Turkey or Prague but the procedures here can be just as deadly and they can also cause life long complications. Us surviving girls are still not okay, we have scarring, we have physical hardships. I have a young son and he could have ended up an orphan. ” Beautician Bonnie from Swanage in Dorset, said decided to have the £3,000 procedure with Life Aesthetics after doing her research. She had been impressed with their elite healthcare address of 7 Harley Street, London. The Mirror understands this address has not been occupied for several years and is currently undergoing building work. She said: “They didn’t send me the postcode until the night before and it was Romford in Essex (not the Harley Street she was expecting). They told me they had two clinics and that day they were working from Romford. I thought I was going somewhere safe. They described it as non-invasive, saying it was pain free and zero down time." She said she arranged the procedure through two women but when she turned up it was a man doing the BBL “I was nervous and I asked a lot of questions and he was really reassuring, saying it was not painful,” she said. But Bonnie said she then suffered 40 minutes of agony. “Oh my gosh, I have a son and it’s the worst pain I’ve ever had in my life. Every time he injected me, I had a shooting pain, I screamed it was so bad. He just made out to me he had not seen someone react this way and actually suggested I had a low pain threshold.” She had been led to believe she was injected with Lidocaine but said the hospital told her it was not that prescribed pain blocker. Her questions about what filler was used were left unanswered by the clinic, she said. The Mirror has also tried to contact the firm for answers with no answer from mobile phone numbers listed. We tracked one woman down, who was listed as a director for the firm, who denied any link with them. It is. not known what qualifications were held by those who carried out the procedure on Bonnie. After getting home from the procedure Bonnie recalls: “I was delirious, I was crying and could not stand or sit. I was vomiting. My sister called for an ambulance. The paramedics arrived quickly and they did observations and said it was obviously some sort of infection. The area was on fire. “They measured a 3cm by 3cm lump on the incision site. They tried to stand me up to get me into the ambulance but I collapsed. My sister thought I was going to die. The next thing I remember is waking up in an ambulance being blue lighted. I woke up on my front with vomit all over me. It was so confusing. This is when I realised how bad it was. “I arrived at the hospital and they took me out in stretcher, there was a massive queue in A & E and there was a nurse waiting for me and they wheeled me into my own room. You know it's serious when you're skipping the queue in A&E. "I was really poorly, the pain overrides everything and you can't think straight. I was crying in pain. When they took me down to MRI every bump was horrific. I was sweating my forehead was dripping. The doctors came into the room and told me: 'You could die within the hour'. They came in six of them putting IV drips in both of your arms. It was rushed. “I remember thinking of my son who is completely dependent on me. I started crying. He would be an orphan, I had to get home for him. "About why she wants to join the Mirror campaign, she added: “I don’t want another mum to go through this, we have to get them to act now. “For four months after my mobility was bad, I couldn't walk properly because of the nerve damage, the pain took a good five months to actually subside." It is believed a traffic light system is under consideration which puts procedures into red, amber and green categories governing who can perform them. A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson say: "We are extremely concerned by reports of highly invasive cosmetic procedures being performed by inadequately trained practitioners. The safety of patients is paramount, and we would urge anyone considering cosmetic surgery to consider the possible health impacts and find a reputable, insured and qualified surgeon. "All doctors performing cosmetic surgery in the UK must be registered with and licensed to practise by the General Medical Council (GMC). We are exploring options around regulation of the cosmetics sector and will provide an update in due course." Horrifying blind spot Britain's plastic surgeons say there is a “horrifying blind spot” in the UK which allows anyone to carry out dangerous cosmetic procedures. Nora Nugent, the President of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS), said: “It is horrifying” and is urgently calling for the Government to “get something done”. “The UK is in a very strange position where we have a very regulated healthcare system but a complete blind spot for all of these procedures and lack of regulation about who can do what,” she told The Mirror. “It’s pretty shocking, what’s out there.” Referring to the death of Alice Webb, 33, after having a liquid BBL, she said: “Obviously it was a tragic situation but it was a tragedy waiting to happen, we’ve been saying for years that more regulation is needed. “It’s been a problem for years...If they don’t do anything about it, there’s nothing to stop the same scenario happening again.” Back in 2013 Sir Bruce Keogh warned the then Government it was a ‘crisis waiting to happen’. She revealed how non medical people, such as beauticians, have been using “dangerous” techniques in High Streets around the country which could perforate someone’s abdomen, cause nerve damage or bleeding in the neck. They have been doing liposuction and fat transfer with non-sterile gloves, visible jumpers and sleeves in the surgical area, and incisions made in the wrong place. “Those are pretty high risk problems to have and total lack of awareness of sterility, of risk of complications,” she said. But Dr Nugent, warned even lip fillers can cause blindness in rare cases. The surgeon from Tunbridge Wells, said the cost price of reputable brands of facial fillers is between £100 and £175 for 1mm so if anyone is offering lip filler for less than £100 it is “too good to be true”. “Anyone who is doing it for that price hasn’t put a lot into their training,” she added. “They are training other people when they don’t know what they are doing themselves. “And advertising really cheap procedures which for these sorts of things means you are using cheap products. It’s a money-making racket. “There are any number of people walking around with terrible lip fillers, overdone, lumpy, filler migrating above the lip because they’ve put too much in or they have put it in the wrong place,” she said. “You shouldn’t see lip filler, if it’s done well. The lips should just look good. If you can see it, it’s not good lip filler.” But she warned “these are aesthetics concerns” and there are other more serious concerns. She explained how there are blood vessels in the lip and if they inject into that they can block the blood supply to the skin - causing the tissue to die. It can also travel in the facial blood vessels to the vessels behind the eye and affect vision. The Dr has to fix bad fillers, dissolving fillers but not all can be dissolved and sometimes they have to surgically remove it. Currently the Government are deciding what to do to crack down on the cosmetic cowboys after the Tory consultation suggested a traffic light system, diving procedures up into green, amber and red. But she is concerned Liposuction is being treated as ‘non surgical procedures’ which she said was “absolutely an atrocity and dangerous going forward.” She stressed: “ These are surgeries” and urged Wes Streeting and the Government to “keep surgery in the hands of surgeons” and “cosmetic surgery in the hands of surgeons who have it in their scope of training.” Dr Nugent added they need to: “Make it illegal for non-healthcare personnel to carry out medical aesthetic procedures and I’m including dermal fillers in this. “Make it illegal or impossible to obtain the equipment or products. They are getting them off the internet.”

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions spent three months scoring at a historic rate. Now with the weather changing outside, they’re winning with old school football, too. Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for two scores , David Montgomery added a third TD run and Detroit's increasingly stingy defense kept the Indianapolis Colts out of the end zone on Sunday, leading the Lions to their ninth straight win, 24-6. “This is, whatever it is, 10 quarters without allowing a touchdown and the three last games in the second half we're not allowing it,” coach Dan Campbell said. “We talk about it all the time — limiting points, play physical style, shut down the run — we were able to do that.” They've been doing it all season in their greatest run in decades, but have been more effective lately and it has shown. The Lions improved to 10-1 for the first time since 1934, their inaugural season in the Motor City. They own the league's longest active winning streak and are 6-0 on the road this season. While the Lions have scored points by the dozens all season, Campbell's preference for physical football means they're equally capable of grinding out wins with the combination of a ball-control offense and an ascending defense that propelled them to this win. Gibbs finished with 21 carries for 90 yards on a day Goff went 26 of 36 with 269 yards and no touchdowns. And for the third straight week, all against AFC South foes, the Lions had a second-half shutout. “If you can win on the road, you're normally a pretty damn good team,” Campbell said. “And we can win on the road.” The Colts (5-7) found out the hard way by losing their second straight home game and for the fourth time in their past five games. Anthony Richardson had another up-and-down game , going 11 of 28 with 172 yards while rushing 10 times for 61 yards. But it was Indy's inability to finish drives with touchdowns that again cost the team. That flaw was evident right from the start when Richardson took the Colts inside the Lions 5-yard line on the game's first series and settled for a short field goal when they couldn't punch it in. “We've got to take advantage of our opportunities,” Colts coach Shane Steichen said. “This league comes down to inches, it comes down to yards and you've got to take advantage of those opportunities. We've had issues down in the red zone and you have to look at the tape and clean it up.” Detroit made Indy pay dearly for its offensive miscues. Gibbs' 1-yard TD run on the Lions' second series made it 7-3 early in the second quarter and after Indy settled for another short field goal, Montgomery spun his way across the goal line for a 6-yard TD and a 14-6 lead. Detroit's defense made sure that was all the scoring punch it needed. “Those players, we've been around each other long enough, they've been around each other to know exactly what we're looking for,” Campbell said. “We have an identity about us. We know the critical factors as they pertain to winning, and those guys take that stuff serious.” Gibbs' 5-yard TD run late in the third quarter gave Detroit a 21-6 lead and they closed it out with a 56-yard field goal midway through the fourth. Amon-Ra St. Brown caught six passes for 62 yards for Detroit while Michael Pittman Jr. had six catches for 96 yards for Indy despite leaving briefly in the first half with an injured shoulder. Gibbs' first score extended Detroit's league record to 25 consecutive games with a TD run, including the playoffs. He's also the third Lions player with 1,000 scrimmage yards and 10 TDs in each of his first two pro seasons with Detroit, joining Billy Sims and Barry Sanders. Gibbs and Montgomery have each scored at least one TD in the same game nine times. Lions: Things got ugly during a third-quarter flurry. Receiver-punt returner Kalif Raymond (foot), left tackle Taylor Decker (right leg) and Montgomery (shoulder) all left in quick succession. Raymond and Montgomery did not return. Decker did. CB Carlton Davis II left early in the fourth with what appeared to be a left knee injury. Colts: Indy deactivated left tackle Bernhard Raimann (knee), forcing the Colts to again use three rookie linemen. Receivers Ashton Dulin (ankle) and Josh Downs (shoulder) both left in the second half. Downs returned, Dulin did not. Lions: Host Chicago in its traditional Thanksgiving Day game. Colts: Visit New England next Sunday. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL

SAO PAULO (AP) — Brazil’s former far-right President Jair Bolsonaro was fully aware of and actively participated in a coup plot to remain in office after his defeat in the 2022 election , according to a Federal Police report unsealed Tuesday. Federal Police last Thursday formally accused Bolsonaro and 36 other people of attempting a coup. They sent their 884-page report to the Supreme Court, which lifted the seal. The unsealed document provides a first glimpse of several testimonies that describe the former president as one of the key leaders of the plot, and not a mere observer. “The evidence collected throughout the investigation shows unequivocally that then-President Jair Messias Bolsonaro planned, acted and was directly and effectively aware of the actions of the criminal organization aiming to launch a coup d’etat and eliminate the democratic rule of law, which did not take place due to reasons unrelated to his desire,” the document said. At another point, it says: “Bolsonaro had full awareness and active participation.” Bolsonaro, who had repeatedly alleged without evidence that the country's electronic voting system was prone to fraud, called a meeting in December 2022, during which he presented a draft decree to the commanders of the three divisions of the armed forces, according to the police report, signed by four investigators. The decree would have launched an investigation into suspicions of fraud and crimes related to the October 2022 vote, and suspended the powers of the nation's electoral court. The navy’s commander stood ready to comply, but those from the army and air force objected to any plan that prevented Lula’s inauguration, the report said. Those refusals are why the plan did not go ahead, according to witnesses who spoke to investigators. Bolsonaro never signed the decree to set the final stage of the alleged plan into action. Bolsonaro has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing or awareness of any plot to keep him in power or oust his leftist rival and successor, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. “No one is going to do a coup with a reserve general and half a dozen other officers. What is being said is absurd. For my part, there has never been any discussion of a coup,” Bolsonaro told journalists in Brazil’s capital Brasilia on Monday. “If someone came to discuss a coup with me, I’d say, that’s fine, but the day after, how does the world view us?” he added. “The word ‘coup’ has never been in my dictionary.” The top court has passed the report on to Prosecutor-General Paulo Gonet. He will decide whether to formally charge Bolsonaro and put him on trial, or toss the investigation. The former president was formally accused of three crimes: violent elimination of the rule of law, staging a coup d'etat and forming a criminal organization. Rodrigo Rios, a law professor at the PUC university in the city of Curitiba, said Bolsonaro could face up to a minimum of 11 years in prison if convicted on all charges. “A woman involved in the Jan. 8 attack on the Supreme Court received a 17-year prison sentence,” Rios told The Associated Press, noting that the former president is more likely to receive 15 years or more if convicted. “Bolsonaro’s future looks dark.” Ahead of the 2022 election, Bolsonaro repeatedly alleged that the election system, which does not use paper ballots, could be tampered with. The top electoral court later ruled that he had abused his power to cast unfounded doubt on the voting system, and ruled him ineligible for office until 2030 . Still, he has maintained that he will stand as a candidate in the 2026 race. Since Bolsonaro left office, he has been targeted by several investigations, all of which he has chalked up to political persecution. Federal Police have accused him of smuggling diamond jewelry into Brazil without properly declaring them and directing a subordinate to falsify his and others’ COVID-19 vaccination statuses . Authorities are also investigating whether he incited the Jan. 8, 2022 riot in which his followers ransacked the Supreme Court and presidential palace in Brasilia, seeking to prompt intervention by the army that would oust Lula from power. Bolsonaro had left for the United States days before Lula’s inauguration on Jan. 1, 2023 and stayed there three months, keeping a low profile. The police report unsealed Tuesday alleges he was seeking to avoid possible imprisonment related to the coup plot, and also await the uprising that took place a week later.
