According to the police, the suspect had two arrest warrants issued by the Paraná and Minas Gerais courts. The work of the civil police that resulted in the suspect's arrest was extolled by Chief of Police Marcus Vinícius Michelotto. "We want to congratulate the police for this great joint work of two units of the Civil Police, in Foz and Curitiba, which resulted in the arrest of this dangerous fugitive from Justice," he said.

Cope's chief delegate, Alexandre Macorin, also highlighted the good intelligence work in conjunction with the Denarc group in Foz do Iguaçu. “Based on the suspect's history, who is a highly sought-after subject, this prison shows that the police have been making efforts to fight organized crime,” he says.

The suspect's location was raised by the Cope Intelligence Sector in Curitiba, which forwarded the information to Denarc of Foz do Iguaçu, whose police officers made the arrest. According to the police, the suspect was approached at around 13 pm at a gas station in the Jardim Lancaster neighborhood, at the time Santos was leaving his BMW-X6 to wash.
