A Civil police ruled out that the beating of Osil Vicente Guedes, in the Guarujá, on the coast of São Paulo, was motivated by fake news about theft. New evidence points to a crime of passion. The initial hypothesis was that the man was assaulted after false news in which he claimed that he had stolen a motorcycle. In fact, the bike was borrowed from a friend. However, delegate Rubens Eduardo Barazal Teixeira stated that other facts came to light and that is why the investigation took a new direction. The new hypothesis is that the man’s death may be linked to problems in his relationship with an ex-girlfriend, after the corporation gained access to an audio sent by the victim to his family members. According to the police, he reports that his ex-partner was responsible for a beating session he suffered earlier. “Right from the start, a motivation emerged that was deconstructed, that is, that he was the author of the theft of a motorcycle and that he would have been beaten because he was the thief, which does not correspond to the truth. This hypothesis was deconstructed after hearing the motorcycle owner and with the emergence of other facts that emerged during the course of the investigations”, said the delegate in a press conference this Wednesday, 10. Young pan, the delegate reiterated that this is the main line of investigation at the moment. “This is a current line of investigation, but a definition still remains.” Three suspects are investigated.

A driver caught the moment of the attacks. The man was wearing a red shirt and was sitting in the middle of the street. He was surrounded by three people. One of them hits Osil on the head with a helmet. Then, another aggressor slaps him on the back of the head and pulls the man closer to the leash. Afterwards, he was attacked with a piece of wood on the head and falls unconscious on the asphalt. Osil was admitted, but could not resist and died on Sunday, 7.
