The accident occurred on Avenida Salim Farah Maluf, in Tatuapé, in the east of the capital. Before that, two other requests for arrest (one temporary and the other preventive) were denied by the courts. When contacted, Andrade Filho’s defense did not speak out until the last update of this report.

The Public Security Secretariat informed, in a note, that the 30th Police District (Tatuapé) concluded the investigations into the case and reported the police investigation to the Court this Wednesday, 24th, with a new request for preventive detention of the author. Now, the Judiciary will decide whether or not to arrest the driver.
The businessman was indicted for intentional homicide (with possible intent), bodily injury – due to the injuries caused to the friend who was with him in the car – and escape from the scene of an accident (he did not provide assistance and did not take a breathalyzer test).
In addition to Viana’s death, the accident resulted in the hospitalization of student Marcus Vinicius Rocha, aged 22, who He underwent a surgical procedure to remove his spleen..
Another point is that the accident was recorded in the early hours of Easter Sunday, but Andrade Filho reported to the 30th DP almost 40 hours after the incident, on April 1st – the same day that Viana was buried in Guarulhos, in Greater São Paulo .
In this ocasion, Andrade Filho’s defense denied that the client had fled the scene of the accident and stated that he was merely “protecting himself from lynching”.
With the conclusion of the investigation, it is up to the Public Ministry of the State of São Paulo (MP-SP) to decide whether to indict Andrade Filho for the three crimes, in addition to being able to agree or not with the new arrest request. Recently, the agency requested 3D scanning expertise to elucidate the accident in detail.
As shown by the EstadãoO Porsche 911 Carrera GTS driven by Andrade Filho was traveling at 156 km/h shortly before the accident who killed Viana, according to a report from the Technical-Scientific Police. The speed represents more than triple the 50 km/h allowed for Avenida Salim Farah Maluf.
According to a Military Police investigation, The officers who responded to the incident made the mistake of not taking the breathalyzer test in Andrade Filho after the accident. “Witnesses say that he had a slurred voice and a staggering walk,” said, on the 6th, delegate Carlos Henrique Ruiz, from the 5th Sectional Police Station (East).
One of the points that supported the second arrest request, for example, made by the Civil Police at the time of the police chief’s statement, is that Andrade Filho appeared to be “altered” that morning, according to witnesses interviewed during the investigation. He had just left an “open bar” party (with drinks allowed) when he was involved in the accident.
