Police in Brazil say they have cancelled the passports of Flávio Bolsonaro after he failed to comply with an order to surrender the documents.
Bolsonaro reportedly left Brazil for the United States following a stunning loss to incumbent President Lula da Silva in Sunday’s election.
Bolsonaro is under investigation for alleged corruption and money laundering, both of which he has denied.
On Monday, the Supreme Court gave Bolsonaro 24 hours to hand over his passports.
In a video on social media, Bolsonaro says he would comply with the order, claiming he had never considered leaving Brazil.
But according to a State Department official, the US plans to issue visas to Bolsonaro and his family to allow them entry into the country.
