A man suspected of kidnapping and murdering barber Rogério Honorato from Ferraz de Vasconcelos was arrested on Monday, October 23, in Luziânia, Goiás. According to the General Investigative Sector (SIG) of the civil police, this individual is identified as the mastermind behind the murder and had been considered a fugitive from justice since 2025 for this crime. His criminal history includes charges ranging from robbery and use of false documents to attempts to escape from prison.

The police investigation reveals that the primary motive for the murder appears to be revenge, stemming from a past relationship between Rogério and the fugitive's ex-wife that occurred approximately 15 years prior. This connection sheds light on the potential personal motivations behind the crime. Additionally, two other men had already been apprehended earlier, linked to the kidnapping and death of the victim, indicating that the authorities are making progress in solving this case.

Rogério Honorato's body was found on November 6, 2025, after he had been missing for 14 days. The incident has raised significant concerns in the local community about safety and the influence of past grievances leading to violent acts. The developments in this case may influence public perceptions of crime and justice in the area, potentially leading to calls for stronger measures from law enforcement to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
