9:53 WORLD – Senator Renan Calheiros, who is leading an investigation by the Brazilian Senate into the action of the government of President Jair Bolsonar in connection with the pandemic, has proposed to accuse President Bolsonar from the murder for alleged government mistakes that led to the deaths of tens of thousands of people.
