Justice orders release of two suspects in the death of an agropecuarist in PG

The Court ordered, on Monday (9), the revocation of the pretrial detention of two suspects investigated by the robbery in Ponta Grossa that victimized the farmer Ângelo Vinicius Carneiro Gomes, 55 years old. The information was confirmed to Portal BnT Online by defense lawyer Renato Tauille, who reported that the decision was made after the presentation of new elements related to the investigation.

According to the defense, the court decision acknowledged that the elements gathered so far are not sufficient to justify the maintenance of the preventive detention of the two investigated. Both will be able to respond to the progress of the investigations in freedom.

Lawyer Renato Tauille sent a note to Portal BnT Online informing that the revocation occurred after the individualized analysis of the information presented in the case.

According to the demonstration, the severity of the crime cannot be used in isolation to assign responsibility to all those investigated, without the existence of elements that indicate the individual participation of each one.

Security cameras are pointed at by the defense

One of the main arguments presented by the defense involves images of the monitoring system of the farmer’s residence, located in the New Russia neighborhood, in Ponta Grossa.

According to the lawyer, the recordings would indicate that the two investigators were not in the property on the date indicated by the defense as the date of the death of the victim.

The defense also maintains that the two did not participate in the subtraction of objects belonging to the farmer.

These elements would have contributed to the reassessment of the need to keep the suspects imprisoned during the course of the investigation.

In a note, the defense stressed the importance of individual analysis of the evidence and said that it will continue to work for the recognition of the innocence of customers.

Remember the case of the farmer

Angelo Vinicius Carneiro Gomes, 55, was found dead inside his own residence in the New Russia neighborhood in Ponta Grossa on October 16, 2026.

The case had a great repercussion in the city and mobilized teams of the Civil Police of Paraná, who began to investigate the death as robbery, a crime characterized by theft followed by death.

During the diligence, three suspects were located and detained in Balneário Camboriú, on the coast of Santa Catarina, on October 16.

At the time, the Civil Police reported that the vehicle and the bank cards of the victim had been used during the escape of the investigators.

One of the suspects even reported involvement in the events, according to police information released at the time.

The investigation began to seek the clarification of the dynamics of the crime and the identification of the possible individual participation of each involved.

Investigation continues on Ponta Grossa

Despite the revocation of the two pre-trial detentions, the police investigation continues.

The release decision does not in itself represent absolution or closure of the investigations. The two investigators will remain subject to the investigation of the facts, while the Civil Police continues with the work of clarification of the crime.

The defense maintains that the new elements demonstrate the absence of participation of its customers in the robbery in Ponta Grossa.

The update represents an important change in the procedural situation of the two investigators, who had been arrested initially during the diligences carried out in Santa Catarina.

The case remains under investigation, and new information may be released as police and judicial work progresses.
