On October 12, the Federal Police escorted a Brazilian national from Portugal to Belo Horizonte after he was listed as one of Interpol's most wanted fugitives. The extradition follows a conviction of 14 years in prison for a homicide committed in March 2020 in Contagem, a city in the Greater Belo Horizonte region of Brazil.

The legal proceedings related to this case took place in the Jury Court of Contagem, which issued the arrest warrant that prompted the suspect's name to be added to Interpol's international wanted list. The accused was subject to a Red Notice, which acts as an international alert to locate and provisionally arrest fugitives pending extradition. This extradition highlights the cooperation between international law enforcement agencies in pursuing fugitives across borders.

Upon arrival in Brazil, the convicted individual underwent standard legal procedures, including a physical examination. His return marks a significant step in the ongoing efforts to apprehend individuals evading justice by fleeing to other countries, underlining the importance of international collaboration in criminal matters.
