SAO PAULO—Brazil’s former President Jair Bolsonaro underwent a series of medical procedures in the capital city of Brasilia on Sunday, including laboratory tests and the surgical removal of skin lesions, the hospital treating him said.
The medical procedures come as Bolsonaro confronts legal and political setbacks. On Thursday, Bolsonaro was sentenced to 27 years in prison after a panel of five justices convicted him of plotting a coup to remain in power after losing the 2022 election.
