Breaking news from Brazil is stranger than fiction. Discovered near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, this burnt out car was the scene of a grizzly murder. After searching the vehicle, police discovered the burned human remains of the Greek Ambassador to Brazil Kyriakos Amiridis, who disappeared on December 26, inside the vehicle. Forensics investigators revealed that the diplomat had been killed prior to being burned. Brazilian authorities detained Francoise Oliveira, the wife of the Greek ambassador, as well as her police officer lover and his cousin on suspicion of murdering the former diplomat. Local police confirmed that the officer was romantically engaged with the ambassador's wife and that the suspect had later confessed to killing Mr. Kyriakos Amiridis. Blood stains were found on the sofa in the ambassdor's house in Nova Iguacu, about 25 miles outside of Rio de Janeiro. The former officer had allegedly murdered Amiridis under the instruction from the diplomat's wife and then the officer's cousin assisted with the removal of the body. The three suspects are being held in a prison in Rio de Janeiro on a judicial order for 30 days, as police continue to investigate.
