Police in Brazil have raided the home of former President Jair Bolsonaro as part of an investigation into falsified COVID-19 vaccination documents.
In a statement on Wednesday, federal police said they conducted 16 raids in Rio de Janeiro and the capital, Brasilia, targeting a “criminal network” believed to have “inserted false COVID-19 vaccination information into public health systems”.
The statement did not name Bolsonaro specifically.
Police said the false vaccination certificates, which occurred between November 2021 and December of last year, “resulted in the alteration of the true COVID-19 vaccination status of the individuals in question”.
“As a result, the individuals were able to emit vaccination certificates and use them to evade health restrictions put in place by authorities in Brazil and the United States,” the statement said.
