Investigations into domestic violence and femicide in Brazil

Overview

Authorities in Brazil and Portugal continue to investigate multiple cases of domestic violence and femicide. In Brazil, recent developments include an indictment in Contagem, Minas Gerais, where a man was charged with the femicide of his ex-partner following a pattern of stalking and physical assault. In Paraná, a man was arrested for killing his wife with a machete; reports indicate the victim had previously lost a baby due to the suspect’s prior domestic violence. The case in Jandaia do Sul, involving a man who killed his partner and committed suicide after using Pix transfers to bypass protective orders, remains a notable example of the challenges in enforcing such measures.

In Bahia, a 22-year-old woman was rescued from private confinement after her daughter’s teacher received a distress note.

In Portugal, law enforcement has also taken action. A 57-year-old man in Évora was placed in preventive detention for aggravated domestic violence involving physical and psychological abuse, including death threats, against a partner of 40 years. Additionally, in Amadora, a 27-year-old man was placed in preventive detention for violating court orders and assaulting his father following a prior police intervention.
