Tragic, a pregnant woman named Ellen Priscila Ferreira da Silva, 24, was torched in Sao Paulo, Brazil with her lover named Ely Carlos dos Santos, 39.
From the investigation, police believe they were alive when they were tied up, petrol was poured on the car, and the vehicle was set alight.
And now, their family confirmed by police, after they recognised the car, which belonged to Ellen’s mother and the charred remains were found in the location.
For that case, the police were arrested four suspects – three men, aged 19, 35 and 38, and a 36-year-old woman.
Paulo de Tars, the officer leading the case, told, “It was a premeditated and very cruel crime. One of the suspects even personally comforted the victim’s mother after her death was confirmed. The victim was four months pregnant by one of the suspects.”
Until now, police are still investigating the motive behind the horrific attack.
But, the main suspect is believed the 38-year-old man and the father of Ellen’s baby, because police found out his car had travelled to the crime seen.
And another suspect is believed to have involved and allegedly helped pour petrol on the victims. Until now, the investigation is ongoing.
