Chief Antonio Ricardo Lima Nunes, director of the General Department of Homicides and Personal Protection, said that today’s operation could help clarify who is responsible for the attack that resulted in the deaths of Marielle and Anderson.
According to the investigations, they would have participated as executor and principal of this crime that victimized the couple in 2014, and it seemed to us a crime with a very clear signature of these criminals, a very peculiar way of acting, and that is why we have this conviction that It really may have a relationship with the case of Councilor Marielle Franco, ”the delegate told GloboNews.
