According to local media, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was taken to the hospital for possible intestinal obstruction early Monday morning.
Bolsonaro, aged 66, was seen boarding the presidential plane by foot, with his entourage. He then went to Vila Nova Star hospital, Sao Paulo for stomach discomforts.
Troubling the President at a rally in 2012 caused severe intestinal damage and internal bleeding. At least four additional surgeries were required.
