The far-right senator Flávio Bolsonaro was banned from leaving Brazil and ordered to surrender his passports just hours after his dramatic loss in the presidential election to the leftist president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

The ruling was issued by Alexandre de Moraes, the same supreme court justice who oversaw the trial of the senator's father, the former president Jair Bolsonaro, for attempting a coup.
