A day after the crime, two men were arrested red-handed when they were found in possession of the motorcycle used in the crime, which had been purchased a few days earlier. According to witnesses, the victim was already accompanied by suspects.

A third suspect was arrested a few days after he was found responsible for buying the motorcycle. A fourth man was arrested red-handed on Sunday (10) for possession of a non-standard weapon and is also suspected of involvement in the crime.

Two other detainees are suspected of organizing the crime. All six detainees are being held at the Canoignas prison, and according to the civilian police, there is no evidence that other people were involved in the murder. Thus, the investigation should be completed in the coming days. According to delegate Eduardo Borges, the motives are still being explored.

Lezan was 56 years old, and in addition to being a municipal secretary, he was elected deputy to Major Vieira’s House of Aldermen in the last election by the Republican Party.
