Mary Adeline Dela Cruz | May 17 2021, 09:36PM EDT


Three suspects have been apprehended by law enforcement following the brutal murder of a young gay teacher and activist in Brazil, according to local police.

The charred remains of LGBTQ activist and professor Lindolfo Kosmaski, 25, was found with gunshot wounds along PR-151 road in São João do Triunfo in the southern state of Paraná on May 1, Brazil de Fato reported. He was reportedly shot twice while tied down with ropes and left inside his burning vehicle.

Hours before his death, Kosmaski was last spotted in a bar in Coxilhão where he paid for a round of beer before he suddenly disappeared, leaving his cell phone at the establishment, according to his cousin Benedito Camargo.

Kosmaski's remains were found in the blazing car early the next day. He was shot twice before being left for dead, according to police, who are yet to conclude whether the esteemed figure died from his gunshot wounds or the fire.
