London, Nov. 7 (ANI): Brazilian police are investigating the possible kidnapping of Brazil international striker Hulk's youngest sister.
The police said that Angelica Aparecida Vieira de Sousa, 22, has been missing since Monday afternoon after being left in front of a restaurant in the northeastern city of Campina Grande. A person who was with her at the time told police that he thinks she was kidnapped, The Guardian reports.
The police said that it is too early to comment whether Sousa was kidnapped, despite widespread reports in the Brazilian media.
According to the paper, the police officer said than an initial call to Sousa's cell phone was answered by a man impersonating her husband.
"She is missing, nobody saw anybody taking her, but we are checking the reports that she may have been kidnapped," she said.
Hulk's family members told authorities that nobody had made any contact to request a ransom or give any other information about her whereabouts, but the investigator, Marcos Paulo, later said that her relatives asked police to stay away from the case, which, he said could, indicate that a contact was made, the paper said.
"We are investigating, there are indications that it could be a kidnapping, but we still don't know for sure," he said. (ANI)
