Daiane Aragão Nobre, alleged to be the head of drug trafficking in the districts of Oiticica and Puxim in southern Bahia, Brazil, was arrested during an operation related to a homicide investigation. She was taken into custody on Monday, September 23. The arrest follows a series of investigations into violent crimes in the region, and Daiane is linked to a homicide that occurred in 2025 in Canavieiras.

The operation was executed by the Civil Police with support from various local police units, including the Canavieiras Territorial Delegation and the Regional Coordination of Interior Police. Authorities executed temporary arrest and search warrants issued by the Criminal Court of Canavieiras. In addition to the arrest, officers discovered a 9mm caliber pistol in Daiane's possession, indicating the serious nature of her alleged criminal operations.

This incident underscores ongoing issues with drug-related violence in Brazil, particularly in regions like southern Bahia, where organized crime networks have been a significant challenge for law enforcement. The operation highlights the collaborative efforts of police to tackle such crimes, as well as the need for continued vigilance in addressing drug trafficking and its associated violence.
