The family of Cayone Matoso Dias, stabbed by the doorman of the building where he lived in Vespasiano, in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, had his brain death confirmed by his family this Wednesday (8). The victim received more than 10 knife blows from the suspect, who was arrested and released shortly afterwards.
According to information obtained by Itatiaia, the family is just waiting for the protocol exams so that the devices keeping the 26-year-old alive can be turned off and Cayone can be buried. In a statement, the Civil Police reported that the doorman claimed that he stabbed Cayone after being attacked with punches and threatened by the victim. To defend himself, the doorman grabbed a pocket knife that was nearby. The case will be investigated.
Family disputes ‘self-defense’
In an interview with Itatiaia, Cayone’s sister-in-law, Stephanie Rodrigues, said that Cayone was returning from his own birthday party when he was stopped by the doorman, who asked the couple not to park in the wrong space. The young man entered the house, but shortly afterwards returned to talk to the doorman.
“The action lasted less than 50 seconds and he was stabbed 11 times with a knife. We are angry, we want him arrested. He took the life of a father, a son, a husband, a worker. We just want justice for Cayone. Where is 11 stab wounds self-defense?”
