Sad news has come from the world of Brazilian football. The father of Santos FC footballer Rony, namely Marigerson Barbosa Carneiro, has died as a result of a stab wound to the neck. The incident occurred on Monday afternoon, November 9, 2026, at the victim's residence on Jalan Patrolino Bentes, Bairro Novo neighborhood, Terra Alta, Pará, Brazil. The Military Police received a report by telephone at around 15:30 local time and immediately moved to the location. As of the time this news was compiled, the authorities are still investigating the case and have not released an official motive to the public.
At the scene, officers arrested a 48-year-old woman named Selma Soares Cordovil. The police also seized a knife approximately 20 centimeters long that is strongly suspected to have been used in the incident. Marigerson received first aid from the local medical team and was rushed to the nearest health post, but his life could not be saved due to the severe stab wound to his neck. The Civil Police, with the support of the Castanhal Homicide Delegation, are still conducting an in-depth investigation to establish the sequence of events and the legal elements. A number of speculations have circulated in local media and through residents' testimony, ranging from issues of debt or payment, domestic disputes, to work or romantic relationships. Nevertheless, the authorities have not released an official motive to the public because the investigation process is still ongoing.
Amid the mourning, Rony issued an official statement on social media to express his deep sense of loss over his father's passing. Santos FC management granted Rony full leave to leave the club without a time limit so that he could be with his family in Pará. His teammate, Neymar Jr., lent his private jet so that Rony and his family could immediately fly to Pará and handle the funeral process. Rony openly expressed his appreciation and thanks for Neymar's generosity during that difficult time. This case serves as a reminder of the importance of waiting for the official police investigation results before drawing conclusions about the actual motive and chronology.
