The São Paulo Court of Justice (TJSP) reported this Saturday (23) that it had granted provisional freedom to defender Renan, from Red Bull Bragantino, who was arrested in the act on Friday (22) on charges of running over and killing a 38-year-old motorcyclist. in a car accident in the morning, in Bragança Paulista (SP). The 20-year-old has 72 hours to post bail, worth 200 minimum wages, around R$242,000.
According to a note from the TJSP, Renan will still have to attend all acts of the process when summoned and keep his address updated, in addition to being prohibited “from going to bars, brothels and concert halls”. The defender will still need to deliver the passport to the Federal Police, also within 72 years, under penalty of revocation of provisional freedom.
The accident occurred at 6:40 am on Friday, on Alkindar Monteiro Junqueira Highway, in the Quinta da Baronesa neighborhood, in Bragança Paulista (SP). Renan was arrested for manslaughter and spent the night in the public jail in Piracaia (SP), a neighboring city. In the decision regarding Saturday’s custody hearing, it was informed that the defender did not have a driving license and was driving “under the influence of alcohol”. The images of the tragedy show that the defender was with the car in the wrong direction.
