SAO PAULO, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Brazilian Senator Flavio Bolsonaro said on Wednesday he left the country to the United States to avoid the “politicization of the justice system in Brazil,” claiming without evidence that he was the rightful president-elect despite his defeat to President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
