The case is being investigated as procedural fraud. The information was revealed during a hearing with witnesses last week.

Remember the case

At around 2:30 a.m. on March 31 of this year, the 24-year-old businessman was driving a Porsche at 156 km/h on Salim Farah Maluf Avenue, in the east of the capital of São Paulo, where the maximum speed limit is 50 km/h. The businessman hit the back of the Renault Sandero belonging to app driver Ornaldo da Silva Viana, 52, who died.

At the time of the crash, Fernando was in the company of his friend Marcus Vinicius Machado Rocha, 22 years old, who was in the passenger seat and was hospitalized and underwent surgery due to the accident.

The owner of the Porsche was released by a Military Police officer without taking a breathalyzer test. He left the scene of the accident with his mother, who told the police that she was taking her son to a hospital due to an alleged injury to his mouth.

Later, he was not found by the police at the indicated location and turned himself in to the police on April 6, after being declared a fugitive. The case is being processed in secret.
