Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro's son, Eduardo Bolsonaro, has been charged with coercion by Brazil's chief prosecutor for allegedly prioritizing personal and family interests over national affairs. Eduardo, a congressman, denounced the charges as baseless amid claims of political persecution.

Eduardo, currently in the US, faces the additional demand for damages resulting from his alleged actions.
