Eduardo Bolsonaro, the son of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, has been convicted of coercion by Brazil's Supreme Court.

This conviction adds a significant legal development for the Bolsonaro family.

In electoral news, a new CNT/MDA poll indicates that Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has increased his advantage over Senator Flavio Bolsonaro in a hypothetical October general election runoff. Lula's lead has widened since April, suggesting a strengthening position in the upcoming electoral landscape.

This decision follows the failure of a plea deal and is connected to an ongoing fraud investigation targeting the failed lender Banco Master. The court's action underscores the seriousness of the financial fraud inquiry.
