Video: Man confesses to pushing ex-partner off cliff in MG

CNN Brasil had access to the video that shows Silvanildo Amâncio de Araújo, arrested for pushing his ex-partner off a cliff in Belo Horizonte (MG), confessing to the crime. In his statement, he claims to have picked up the woman at work on Monday (25), but says he did not plan to commit violence.

I caught her myself. I called her to get in the car. He said: 'I'm not going to kill you, no'. I took her to Jardim Canada and threw her off the cliff and that was it. I pushed her there. I saw where she fell and she was still alive, she was walking down there. I went down to look for her, but I couldn't find her because the place she was was too far away. I had never planned.

I remember the case
A 41-year-old woman, who was kidnapped, threatened and thrown from a cliff by her ex-partner, aged 52, in Belo Horizonte (MG), was rescued alive in Serra do Rola-Moça, in the metropolitan region of the city, on the afternoon of this Tuesday (26). The victim had been missing since Monday (25).

According to the Minas Gerais Military Fire Department, drones and thermal sensors were needed on the first day of searches. On the second day, the location and air rescue were carried out with the help of the corporation's Archangel aircraft (helicopter).

According to the corporation, the victim was conscious and oriented, with no signs of fractures, only with bruises from the fall, which was approximately 50 meters high, the first 10 meters being in a steeper position.

She was then evaluated by the Archangel's crew medical team and received air transportation to HPS João XXIII.

The Civil Police of Minas Gerais reported that Ana Claúdia Rodrigues da Silva Souza remains under medical care at the unit. The suspect was identified as Silvanildo Amâncio de Araújo.

He was arrested by the Military Police in Várzea da Palma and remains in the corporation's custody, as reported by the Civil Police. After completing the Social Defense Event Registration (Reds), the procedure will be forwarded to the local Civil Police Station, in accordance with legal procedures.

In total, seven land vehicles and a helicopter were mobilized. Around 22 professionals participated in the operation on both days.
