PM Luan Felipe Alves Pereira has been in prison since December 5th. The military police investigation goes to the Military Justice, and it is up to the body to open a view so that the Public Ministry of São Paulo (MPSP) can file a complaint, request new measures or request the case to be closed.
The soldier has already been accused of the death of a suspect with 12 shots after a chase in Diadema, in Greater São Paulo. The case, which was initially processed in the Military Court, was sent to regular court on suspicion of intentional homicide, but ended up archived in January of this year.
In testimony, the police officer stated that his objective was to immobilize the man after he had allegedly resisted a police approach. According to the PM, the intention was to throw him on the ground – not the wall.
