Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has been indicted by Brazil's Federal Police for money laundering and criminal association, related to undeclared diamonds he reportedly received from Saudi Arabia during his presidency.
巴西前总统雅伊尔·博尔索纳罗于日前遭到巴西联邦警察起诉,罪名是洗钱和团伙犯罪,这与他在担任总统期间从沙特阿拉伯收到的未申报的钻石首饰有关。
Sources familiar with the matter confirmed the indictment, though specifics of the charges were not disclosed due to anonymity restrictions.

The indictment has yet to be officially received by Brazil's Supreme Court, where the Prosecutor-General will review it to determine whether charges will be filed, potentially leading to a trial.
巴西最高法院尚未正式收到起诉书,总检察长将对此案进行审查,以决定是否提出指控,这可能导致审判。

博尔索纳罗和他的法律团队一直否认在这些案件和其他正在进行的调查中有任何不当行为,包括与2023年1月巴西起义有关的煽动指控。
