Following a four-month investigation into the disappearance of 18-year-old cousins Letycia Garcia Mendes and Sttela Dalva Melegari Almeida from Cianorte, police discovered their bodies in a wooded area of Paraíso do Norte, Paraná.

During the operation, authorities arrested a 29-year-old accomplice in Umuarama who provided information regarding the location of the remains.
