According to Sandro:
“I went with my friend Carvalho and told him my wife is pregnant and that he should pay me my debt,” and after his refusal, they started to struggle with him.
The two Brazilians revealed that they killed the Nigerian DJ with a pig tie and tortured him.
“I wanted my debt, when we refused, we tied him and tortured him,” he added. They have since been charged to court.
