Horrifying Incident at a Brazilian Bank: Woman Attempts to Get Dead Man to Sign Loan
In a shocking turn of events, a woman in Brazil was caught on camera wheeling a corpse into a bank and allegedly attempting to get the deceased man to “sign off” on a loan in her name. The incident took place at a bank branch in Bangu, located in the western area of Rio de Janeiro, and has since garnered widespread attention and disbelief.
Suspicion Arises as Bank Employees Notice Unusual Behavior
Bank employees at the branch in Bangu immediately grew suspicious when they noticed the woman holding up the man’s head in front of them. Concerned about his pale appearance, they questioned the woman’s intentions and promptly alerted emergency services while recording the entire situation.
The footage captured the woman urging the man to grip a pen and sign the loan document, saying, “Uncle, are you listening? You have to sign it. I can’t sign for you.” However, the bank staff expressed their doubts about the legality of the situation, with one employee stating, “I don’t think this is legal. He doesn’t look well. He’s very pale.”
A Chilling Encounter Caught on Camera
The horrifying footage continued to unfold as the woman dismissed the concerns of the bank workers, claiming that the man’s pale appearance was normal for him. She even offered to take him to the hospital if he was feeling unwell, asking, “Do you want to go back to the hospital again?” The man’s head could be seen swaying back and forth as she held onto his neck and demanded that he sign the document.
Tragically, paramedics later confirmed that the man, identified as Paulo Roberto Braga, 68, had passed away a few hours prior to the incident. The exact cause of his death has not yet been released by the authorities.
Arrest and Ongoing Investigation
Immediately following the incident, Erika de Souza Vieira Nunes, the woman responsible for wheeling the deceased man into the bank, was arrested at the scene. Local reports suggest that the loan in question amounted to 17,000 Brazilian reais, equivalent to approximately $5,000 AUD.
Police Chief Fabio Luiz confirmed that the man was already deceased before being brought into the bank. The investigation is currently underway to identify other family members and determine whether the man was alive when the loan was arranged and when it was dated.
This shocking incident has left the community in disbelief and raises questions about the potential exploitation of the deceased for personal gain. The authorities will continue their efforts to uncover the truth behind this disturbing event.
