A 21-year-old woman was forced to dig her own grave before being shot dead and buried on a beach.
Police officers at Irapiruba Norte de Laguna, in the southern Brazilian state of Santa Catarina, dug up Amanda Albach’s body on Friday, December 3, and the body was uncovered a day after three people, two men and a woman were arrested.
It was reported that one of them revealed where the 21-year-old was killed. The suspect is also alleged to have admitted making the deceased dig her own grave before gunning her down on November 15, over comments she made about him dealing drugs.
Albach was last seen a day earlier when she attended a party in the nearby city of Florianopolis. The resident of Fazenda Rio Grande, Curitiba, had travelled to Santa Catarina with a couple of friends to attend a friend’s birthday party.
Police chief Bruno Fernandes said;
‘It was this bond that brought her to this house in Santa Catarina. She came to celebrate this person’s birthday.’
Michael Pinheiro, Ms Albach’s family lawyer, added ‘These friends of hers said they left the party and had not seen her again.’
Police found ‘inconsistencies in the statements’ which raised suspicions regarding the involvement of people at the party in her disappearance. It was also learnt that the young woman last sent an audio message to her parents on the night of November 15
