Rapper Oruam's preventive detention revoked, charge downgraded in Rio

A judge of the 3rd Criminal Court in Rio de Janeiro, Tula Corrêa de Mello, revoked the preventive detention of rapper Mauro Davi dos Santos Nepomuceno, known as Oruam. The charge was reclassified from attempted homicide to simple bodily injury (lesão corporal leve) after the incident on 22 July 2025 in the Joá neighborhood, where Oruam and others allegedly threw stones at police officers executing a search‑and‑seizure warrant. The case has been transferred to an ordinary criminal court. Oruam remains subject to precautionary measures, including monthly court appearances, night‑time house arrest from 20:00 to 06:00, and a ban on entering the Complexo do Alemão. Co‑defendants retain their existing measures. The judge noted no new facts or violations that would justify continued detention.
