According to initial information, the police report that two men arrived at the establishment on a black motorcycle. Without saying a word, they aimed their shots at the young man, who was sitting helplessly in the barber’s chair. The attack was quick and precise, suggesting a planned execution.
One of the cold-blooded details of the case, highlighted by the initial investigation, is strong evidence that the perpetrators, after leaving the scene, passed by the hospital where the victim was taken. The police interpret this as a check to see whether Nicolas had actually died.
The body of Nicolas Fernandes Boaventura was transported to the Institute of Forensic Medicine (IML) for standard procedures. The motive for the murder is not yet known. The civil police have taken over the investigation and are working to identify and apprehend the two men involved in the execution.
