I suspect that today, this achievement has been granted for the first time to Brazil, with the arresting of Michel Temer, and considering that Lula da Silva is still under arrest.
It is normally big news if a former president is incarcerated, so I'd be surprised to know this occurred twice somewhere else.

Peru has an interesting case of former presidents being incarcerated or in the eye of justice.
Alberto Fujimori in right now in prison, for human right violations, 25 years of conviction.
Ollanta Humala is in preventive reclusion, investigated for corruption.
Alejandro Toledo, currently fugitive of justice for corruption as well. Case Oderbrecht (link in Spanish), that started in Brasil.
Alan García, twice president, twice investigated for corruption. Lately due to case Oderbrecht as well.
Summary, if you have been a Peruvian president, you are probably under investigation by the justice.

The question asks about "jail", so "preventive reclusion" is quite close but not there. Then again, Peru might be a serious contender for the first triple.
