Prosecution wants vax certificate case against Bolsonaro dropped

Brazil’s Attorney General Paulo Gonet requested the shelving of an investigation into former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s alleged fraud in his Covid-19 vaccination records. The prosecution concluded there was insufficient evidence to prove Bolsonaro instructed his aide, Mauro Cid, to falsify vaccination data in the Health Ministry’s system, despite the former aide-de-camp claims in a plea bargain. As per Brazilian law, corroborating evidence is needed beyond a collaborator’s testimony.
