A young male sex worker, Jose Henrique Aguiar Soares, found himself in a chilling murder case when he killed his elderly lover, an architect, in the Setor Oeste region of Goiania, in the state of Goias, Brazil, on September 25. The victim, a 64-year-old man, met a tragic end at the hands of Soares.
What led to Soares' capture was a bizarre twist involving a bank transaction.
Soares attempted to drain the victim's bank account after the murder, using the victim's phone for online banking. However, he encountered an unexpected obstacle – the facial recognition feature. To bypass this security measure, Soares had to physically hold the victim's head steady while validating the transfer.
The transfer initially went through successfully, but it raised red flags in the bank's security department. They received photos of the access attempts, which clearly showed a hand steadying the victim's head during the process.
This unusual activity prompted immediate suspicion.
Upon receiving the alert, the police were dispatched to the account holder's address, where they made a startling discovery. They found the lifeless body of the victim, positioned in a way that suggested suicide, clutching a crucifix.
However, a crucial piece of evidence emerged from the building's CCTV footage. It captured Soares leaving the scene at 5 am with a large suitcase. This suspicious departure cast doubt on the apparent suicide scenario.
Soares was subsequently arrested when he returned to the crime scene, apparently hoping to convince the police that he had stumbled upon the body and had no involvement in the murder. Initially, he provided a false name to the authorities, but his true identity was swiftly uncovered. It was revealed that he was already wanted for other financial crimes, deepening the mystery surrounding his actions.
As the investigation continues, Soares remains in police custody, awaiting further legal proceedings.
