      The former actress had been tortured and strangled by a gang
      Actress and model Eliza Samudio, 25, was kidnapped and murdered by a gang in June 2010.
      She was tortured and beaten before being strangled and killed.
      Bruno Fernandes – who had an affair with Eliza and a son, followed by a paternity and child support lawsuit – later confessed to organising the sick plot.
      He was sentenced to 22 years in jail in March 2013 after a court found him guilty of ordering the model’s murder.

      In January this year, a court granted parole to Bruno, under the condition he presents himself at the Penitentiary Administration Secretariat of Rio de Janeiro every three months.
      And earlier this week, Orion Futebol Clube announced it snapped the footballer who was previously in Atletico Mineiro, Corinthians, and Flamengo.
      The club, which will compete in the Super Copa Pioneer this year, wrote: “Backup for the position, welcome!”
      Orion is the seventh team to have signed Bruno since 2017, when he was granted habeas corpus before being ordered to return to jail three months later.

      Bruno’s last team was Atletico Carioca in Sao Goncalo, Rio de Janeiro State.
      Despite being married with two daughters, the footballer would often attend marathon 24-hour sex parties- in one of which he met Eliza in May 2009.
      They started a relationship but three months later Eliza became pregnant.
      During her pregnancy she went to the police, claiming she had been kidnapped by two of Bruno’s friends who forced her to take an illegal drug that would induce miscarriage.
      The drug did not work and in ­February 2010 she gave birth to Bruninho — which translates as “Little Bruno”.
      After the baby’s birth, she was lured into a car on the promise that Bruno would give her an apartment and all the maintenance pay she wanted but she was driven with her baby to Bruno’s house instead.

      There she was strapped to a chair and beaten for six days by a gang that included Bruno’s wife, another ­former lover, his teenage cousin and a former police officer, Marcos Santos.
      Eliza was tortured as loud music was blasting before she was eventually strangled in front of her son.
      Her disappearance sparked a massive police investigation but the truth came to light when one of Bruno’s co-conspirators-his teenage cousin- confessed everything. 
      Although he initially denied any involvement, Bruno finally broke down in court and confessed to his part in the plot.
      He claimed he had not made the order to kill Eliza but had “accepted” it and knew she had been killed.
      He was sentenced to 22 years in prison after the judge said he had “meticulously calculated” the execution.
      His closed prison sentence was converted to a semi-open prison sentence in July 2019.
      In a semi-open prison regime, prisoners are allowed to work outside the prison during the day, but they must return to the prison each night.

      Fans could be seen raising their hands in an attempt to calm the situation and demonstrate that they were not being aggressive.
      Some argued with officers, while others filmed the beatings on their phones.
      One fan was injured after they were shoved by a riot shield and fell backwards.
      Footage posted by BBC journalist David Cheeseman showed a group of people, including British police officers present at the scene, tending to the fan on the floor, while other tried to warn Italian officers of their condition.

      One man, who was visibly angry, was spotted escorting a young boy through the crowd, shielding him with his arm and seeming to shout at anyone who came near them.
      Other youngsters are visible in the crowd as the hefty police presence surged into groups of fans.
      Stewards in high-vis jackets watch on as the clashes unfold, before a couple move in to try and restore order.
      It is currently unclear what sparked the brawl.

      Sports broadcaster Faye Carruthers reported on Twitter that England fans had told her that it had been “farcical” trying to get into the stadium.
      Some were reportedly “crammed” into a bus for 90 minutes, which then went in the opposite direction from the stadium.
      This is believed to have caused a number of the passengers to miss kick-off.
      Crowds were still waiting to get into the stadium 50 minutes into the match.
      Gareth Southgate’s men are seeking to start their Euros campaign strongly after the devastating loss to France in the World Cup quarter final last year.
      On the pitch, Harry Kane has overtaken Wayne Rooney as England’s all-time goal-scorer, slotting a penalty to take his team to a 2-0 lead.
      Italy clawed a goal back before the clash ended 2-1.

      The mum, married to welterweight champ Conor, said the robber left empty-handed and thankfully neither she or Eli were hurt.
      Describing the horror on her YouTube channel, Victoria said she was eating her dinner on Sunday evening when she heard a noise.
      The mum added: “I thought ‘There’s no way that could have been a breeze’.
      “I walked out to the hallway and I found a man on the stairs, it was probably the most scariest thing that has ever happened to me.”

      Victoria explained she “lost it” after finding the intruder and began “screaming and swearing at him”.
      The mum said: “I cannot explain the feeling that took over me, it makes me want to be sick.
      “When you’re going towards that noise and then seeing someone in your house.”
      She said her phone was charging in the bedroom so she couldn’t get help straightaway as she did not want to leave Eli alone.
      Most read in Boxing
      Eventually she managed to raise the alarm with her neighbours and the man left without taking anything.
      Victoria believes the thief was watching the house as Conor – son of ring legend Nigel Benn – had left 30 minutes before he broke in.
      She has slammed the “disgusting” robber for their “audacity” at targeting her while she was home alone.
      But she thanked Essex Police for their help since the break-in and confirmed there is now extra security at their home.
      Victoria added: “How horrible it is to know your house broken into. When I’m now home alone without Conor it’s not a nice feeling at all and it made me feel very vulnerable.
      “Now I have that fear when I’m home alone with Eli that anything can happen. To go through that was honestly the most scariest moment of my life.”
      It comes after Conor revealed this month he wanted to kill himself after being accused of taking a banned testosterone-boosting drug
      The boxer told Piers Morgan that he suffered night terrors and panic attacks in the wake of the drugs tests last autumn.
      And in Piers Morgan Uncensored, Benn also revealed he wants to sue British boxing’s governing body for loss of earnings and damage to his reputation.

      A HUGE security operation was launched to shield 2,500 England fans amid fears of yob mayhem before tonight’s World Cup qualifier in Naples.Fans have been asked to gather at the crime-plagued city’s port area to be ferried on 23 buses to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium tonight to avoid Napoli’s notorious Ultra gangs.

      But authorities fear breakaway groups – including West Ham yobs teamed with Napoli’s hated rivals Lazio – are planning a showdown.
      Large groups of England fans were visible in bars and cafes but stayed low key with the majority wearing no team colours and there were no early reports of trouble.
      But they were being eyed by groups of local youth as they drank beer in pavement cafes before the kick off at 8.45pm local time.
      And police reinforcements have been drafted in to protect Three Lions followers at potential flashpoints along routes to the match at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
      READ MORE ON ENGLAND
      Tonight’s game will be England’s first since the Qatar World Cup and the first competitive clash with Italy since our heartbreaking penalties defeat at the Euro 2020 Final.
      Fans were urged to gather in the port area of the tough southern city to board a fleet of buses at 4pm to avoid Ultra ambushes.
      But early signs suggested many fans would shun the protected route and stay within the warren of streets in the city centre until closer to kick-off.
      Police securing the “high risk” fixture asked England fans not to wear belts at the game amid fears that they – like local yobs – could use them as weapons.
      Most read in Football
      An alcohol ban was also put in place from 7am – midnight on the day of the match around the stadium and from midday in the city centre.
      But many bar owners appeared to be ignoring police instructions with travelling fans seen quaffing beer long after the lunchtime deadline in the city.
      Tension simmered amid fears of yob violence led by “twinned” hooligan firms, as reported in Sun Online yesterday.
      Sources in Rome reported English West Ham thugs had arrived in the Italian capital and had joined “Ultra” comrades from the city’s Lazio club.
      Police and security forces were said to be on “maximum alert” amid reports the teamed-up troublemakers were heading 140 miles north east to Naples.
      Hammers hoolies and Lazio Ultras were planning to ambush fans of Lazio’s hated rivals Napoli ahead of the England game, it was claimed.
      Corriere dello Sport, Italy’s leading sport paper, reported sweaters bearing West Ham logos were seen on Sunday when violence erupted at Lazio’s derby game against Roma.
      It could not be verified that the wearer of the Hammers shirts were English – but the paper reported authorities were taking the threat of further coordinated violence in Naples seriously.
      Only last week, 470 Eintracht Frankfurt ultra fans – who had been banned from Naples’ Diego Armando Maradona Stadium for a Champion League match against Napoli – ran riot.
      Cars were set on fire and cops pelted with missiles as they struggled to separate the Germans from 300 Napoli Ultras, who also turned on security forces.
      In September 2019, two Liverpool fans were hurt by flying bottles hurled by Napoli yobs – who are famed for cowardly “calling card” knife attack to their victims’ buttocks.
      But Italy’s soccer federation decided to stage the Three Lions’ crucial World Cup qualifier in Naples – their first match since the Qatar World Cup – despite security concerns.
      And around 2,500 England fans are due to begin arriving in Naples today ahead of the big game.

      Security concerns rose after a “friendly” football match between England and Italy supporters was axed on Monday after notorious Naples hooligans warned they would launch an attack.
      Italian “Ultra” yobs emailed the England fans’ team boss warning 60 soccer savages would “get them” – forcing the game to be called off.
      Garford Beck, the boss of England men’s supporters’ team, said the “threatening” email he received read: “You advertise this game for us to see where you’ll be – we will be there.
      “60 ultra to get you. Be warned.”
      Mr Beck said he asked his Italian counterpart to show the email to Italian authorities and the game was called off after security chiefs responded: “We are very concerned.”
      The Italian Football Federation has now informed Mr Beck the game has been cancelled after leas from the English FA.
      Mr Beck said: “They are treating it very seriously and have judged it to be a viable threat. Safety has to be our priority and we would have been an easy target for these people.
      “They normally come tooled up to the hilt so it could have been a very nasty situation had I not opened that email.”
      Mr Beck said England fans had played their Italian counterparts in Milan in September last year – to coincide with a Nations League game – without any issues.

      Corriere dello Sport reported: “Some West Ham sweatshirts were glimpsed in the scuffles near the Ponte della Musica … the threat could still materialise in Naples between Italy and England.”
      The two football heavyweights have enjoyed a strong alliance that stems back almost two decades.
      Carlton Leach, a former member of England’s feared ICF hooligan firm, told The Sun Online both clubs had deep respect for each other.
      He said: “We [West Ham fans] started to go out to Lazio about 15 years ago.

      “It all stems back from the Paolo Di Canio days.
      “We would go to their club house and drink with their top boys – they looked after us.
      “It is a relationship built on strong mutual respect and you had to earn it, but we call them our ‘Italian brothers’.
      “La Familia.”
      Leach said he was not aware of Hammers’ fans heading to Naples for a scrap.
      He said: “I am 64 and am out of that scene but I cannot see English supporters going over there to cause disrespect to them.
      “You know, 30 years ago, in the ICF days I could definitely see something erupting at a European qualifier but today I doubt it – it has changed a lot.”
      However, if the Italian media’s claims are true, the coalition of supporters could walk into a cauldron of violence.
      Only last week, 470 Eintracht Frankfurt ultra fans – who had been banned from Naples’ Diego Armando Maradona Stadium for a Champion League match against Napoli – ran riot.

      Around 2,500 England fans are due to begin arriving in Naples today ahead of the big game.
      The Corriere dello Sport report added: “The gaze of the Ministry of the Interior is directed already at Thursday’s match when over two thousand English fans will be in Italy.
      “It is feared that someone might give life to a new urban warfare as happened in Naples with the Eintracht Frankfurt fans.”
      Naples’ Il Napolista newspaper added: “West Ham ultras are already in Rome, preparing for guerrilla warfare in Naples.
      “The alert for the match between Italy and England at Maradona is maximum.
      “What is especially worrying are the ultras of West Ham, twinned with those of Lazio, who attempted to attack the Roma fans.
      “They remained in the city because they intend to provoke clashes in Naples too, on the occasion of Italy-England.”
      Describing West Ham yobs’ alleged involvement in trouble before the Lazio v Roma game on Sunday, Il Napolista said: “The fuse off the pitch was lit before the initial whistle. 
      “During the influx of fans at Ponte della Musica, Lazio supporters together with some West Ham fans – who have always been twinned with the Biancocelesti (Lazio fans) – risked coming into contact with the Roma fans. 
      “Danger was thwarted by the timely intervention of the police.”

      F1 ace Lando Norris ‘robbed of his incredibly rare £144,000 designer watch while leaving Wembley after Euro 2020 final’

      by

      F1 ACE Lando Norris was robbed of his “unique” £144,000 designer watch in Wembley Stadium’s VIP car park, a court heard yesterday.The McLaren driver, 23, was targeted for his Richard Mille timepiece – one of only five in the world – as he walked to his £165,000 McLaren GT after the Euro 2020 final.

      The Richard Mille “prototype limited edition McLaren watch”, also known as the RM6702, was the only one in the world with a blue strap made to measure for the driver’s wrist.
      Despite never being made available for sale, the designer estimates the value to be around £144,000 – excluding VAT.
      Liam Williams, 25, from Merseyside has denied robbing the Belgian-British F1 star on July 11, 2021.
      He appeared at court today wearing a navy-blue t-shirt and grey ripped jeans.

      The robbery came after England’s defeat to Italy on penalties after a 1-1 draw.
      Tyrone Silcott, prosecuting, said the attack happened in the VIP yellow car park at Wembley Stadium following the final.
      Mr Norris told Harrow Crown Court it was midnight and raining as he spoke to members of the public next to his McLaren.
      He then realised two suspects were circling the car.
      Most read in Motorsport
      He added: “I noticed the suspect looking around my car and myself while keeping his head down. I believe his right hand was near, or on, his pocket.”
      The first suspect “slowly approached”, he added.
      “When I turned towards him, he asked me ‘is this your car?’ I do not recall exactly what happened.
      “Suspect 1 then went behind me and put his right arm around my neck and his left arm was under my back.
      “Suspect 1 pushed me into him and pulled me back by my neck.”
      Lando was left looking up at the sky as the first man told the second to “grab the watch”.
      He added: “Suspect 2 struggled to get the watch for a while however they used force to pull the watch off leaving scratches on my arm.
      “When suspect 1 had his arm around my neck the suspect manages to get the watch off my left wrist.”
      After just 30 seconds the attackers ran away via a nearby pedestrian walkway.
      Cops took two swabs from the F1 driver, two from his neck and two from his left wrist, where the watch was stolen.
      The prosecutor said the tests suggested a match with Williams’ DNA.
      And Williams’ phone records show he travelled to Wembley from Liverpool on the day of the theft.
      His phone was logged near Wembley Stadium in the early hours of July 12, 2021 before travelling back to Liverpool on July 13, 2021.
      Williams was arrested in Liverpool on July 18, 2021 on suspicion of robbery and attended a voluntary interview that day, where he answered no comment to all questions.
      He was interviewed again on July 19 and answered no comment again to all questions.
      On that same day a “video identification” took place, however Mr Norris was unable to identify him as one of the robbers, jurors heard.

      He then attended a third interview on December 12, 2021 where he again answered no comment to all questions.
      The trial continues. More
