Two Brazilian suspects have been arrested in connection to the murder of a Nigerian DJ, Emmanuel Okonyia in Turkey.
The Nigerian DJ was found dead in his apartment at Mecidiyeköy with his hands and feet tied behind. An early police investigation revealed that Emmanuel who had a knife next to his body, was tortured before he was killed.
The two Brazilian suspects arrested over the murder incident were identified as Sandro Marcello A. and Jonathan Carvalho D. It was further learnt that they confessed to the crime and also accused the Nigerian DJ of refusing to pay them after a $200,000 drug deal.
Sandro said “I went with my friend Carvalho and told him my wife is pregnant and that he should pay me my debt, he refused which led to a struggle. I wanted my debt, when he refused, we tied him and tortured him.”
