Brazil's former President Michel Temer was arrested on Thursday in a corruption¹ investigation², according to local media.

巴西前总统米歇尔·特梅尔周四涉嫌腐败被逮捕调查。

The arrest was ordered by Judge Marcelo Bretas, who is in charge of the Operation Car Wash investigations³ on corruption in the government.

Temer, the predecessor⁴ of current President Jair Bolsonaro, left office last year.

The police reportedly also seek Moreira Franco, who served as Minister of Mines and Energy in the Temer government, and Eliseu Padilha, who served as Temer's Chief of Staff.

It remains⁵ unclear which particular accusation⁶ Temer is being arrested for, as he was charged in several cases.

Temer is the second Brazilian president that has been arrested for corruption, following Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who is currently serving a 12-year-and-one-month prison sentence for corruption and money laundering⁷.
