He was a popular leftist leader and president in Brazil...but with a criminal record.
Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva was convicted in a corruption and bribery scandal in 2017.
But a judge has found the court that sentenced him lacked the necessary jurisdiction.
The conviction has been annulled and the left-wing politician can now bid for the presidency again next year.
If he decides to run, his main rival would be far-right President Jair Bolsonaro.
So, What could that mean for Brazil's polarised politics?

Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom

Guests:

Geraldo Zahran, specialist on Brazil’s ties with the United States
James Green, Director of Brazil Initiative at Brown University.
Francisco Dominguez, Head of Latin American Studies at Middlesex University.
