One Month After Daiane Alves Souza Vanished, Homicide Unit Takes Over Probe

Overview

• Goiás Civil Police said on Jan. 16 the case shifted to the Special Homicide Investigation Group, which is running a task force with field work and technical analyses.
• The 43-year-old was last recorded on Dec. 17 entering the building’s subsoil to address a power outage, with no footage of her returning to the elevator or exiting the condominium.
• Moments earlier, she filmed the outage, spoke at reception, reentered the elevator, and there has been no detected phone signal or banking activity since that night.
• Authorities and reports highlight limited camera coverage in the technical area and an inconsistency noted by relatives: the apartment door looked open in video but was later found locked.
• Family and supporters have organized protests for answers as relatives cite prior disputes and a lawsuit involving the condominium, and police request confidential tips via 197 or local channels.
