A Brazilian man residing in Malden, Mass., was indicted on Wednesday for fraudulently obtaining a visa to enter the U.S. and lying on his asylum application, failing to disclose to immigration authorities his involvement in the murders of 11 people in Brazil — a 2015 incident known as the “The Slaughter of Curió.”
Antonio Jose De Abreu Vidal Filho, 30, was indicted on two counts of visa fraud, two counts of perjury and one count of falsifying, concealing and covering up a material fact.
Following his initial appearance in a Boston federal court on Wednesday, he is being detained until a hearing scheduled for June 5, 2024.
According to the indictment, Ade Breau joined the Ceara State Military Police in April 2014, the Brazilian military police unit tasked with doing first line policing on the street.
