Police arrested Mario Marcelo Santoro, 40, in an apartment in Botafogo, southern zone, handcuffed to the post from police. The engineer was considered a fugitive by the police in Brazil and Australia. He is the main suspect in the murder of Cecilia Haddad. She was killed in April in the city of Sidney where she lived.
Investigations show that Mário and Cecilia were boyfriends, but they had disagreements and Cecilia asked Mario to leave his house. The body of the Brazilian, aged 38, was found on April 29 in the Lane Cover River, with signs of strangulation.
On Friday (6), the police went to the building where the engineer lives in Copacabana, but there was no one in the house.
At the police station, the police heard the testimony of Mario Marcelo Santoro. His lawyer said the engineer had denied any involvement in Cecilia's death. But he did not explain why Mario escaped to Brazil. From the police station, Mário was taken to the Institute of Forensic Medicine and then sent to a prison in Rio.
