Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro signed an agreement at the Superior Electoral Court on Thursday to simultaneously lift the secrecy of their bank, tax and phone records, and those of relatives and linked companies, three days before Sunday’s presidential runoff. Release of the data now depends on a decision by Judge André Mendonça, the case rapporteur.
