Brasília: Former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro was discharged from hospital Sunday in Brasilia, where he underwent abdominal surgery three weeks ago, according to an AFP reporter.
Brazil's 70-year-old far-right leader underwent surgery on April 13 to fix an intestinal obstruction, a complication stemming from a stabbing attack he suffered during a 2018 campaign rally.
