Men are being investigated for the suspicion of causing death with possible premeditation, which according to Brazilian law means that the perpetrator of the death did not intend to cause it directly, but was aware of the possibility of fatal consequences and accepted the risk, reports BBC. The woman fell about 40 meters deep. When rescuers arrived at the scene, they could only confirm her death.
The accident occurred on a deserted bridge called Ponte do Esqueleto (“Bridge of the Skeleton”) on the border between the towns of Limeira and Cordeiropolis in the state of Sao Paulo. The video of the event, which has circulated on social networks, shows how three men help the woman jump. Two men in white helmets hold her by her hands, and the third by her feet.
Then they lower her over the edge of the bridge. The moment she falls, the voice of an observer can be heard on the video.
