Country singer's husband is on Interpol's red list
José Roberto de Oliveira Lima, known as Tiquinho and husband of country singer Sônia Sayara, joined Interpol's red list. According to information published by Coluna de Manoela Alcântara, from the Metrópoles newspaper,...
The investigation indicates that Tiquinho took command of the criminal organization after the death of Paraguayan drug trafficker Carlos Rubén Sánchez Garcete, known as Chicharô.
A former deputy deputy in Paraguay, Chicharô was murdered in August 2021, in Pedro Juan Caballero, a city that borders Ponta Porã, in Mato Grosso do Sul. Armed men invaded his residence and fired dozens of shots.
After the execution, Tiquinho would have started to head the scheme alongside Sônia, who was born in Paraguay and also uses the name Sônia Sánchez Garcete.
The singer was arrested by the Federal Police in May last year during Operation Tango Down. It was located on a site in Mogi Guaçu, in the interior of São Paulo. Investigated in the same case, Sônia became a defendant in January of this year.
Still according to Manoela Alcântara's Column, the PF believes that Tiquinho is hiding in Paraguay. Given the suspicion, the corporation requested the Court to include his name on the Interpol red list. The request was authorized.
Sources linked to the investigation say that Tiquinho continues to perform functions within the criminal organization.
The group would have used air and land routes to send drugs to Brazilian territory. Pilots, drivers and companies would also be used in the operation, with the aim of disguising the origin and nature of the cargo transported.
Sônia Sayara has 211 thousand followers on Instagram and approximately one thousand monthly listeners on a streaming platform. Manoela Alcântara's Column reported that it was unable to contact the singer's and Tiquinho's defenses.
