A policeman in Rio de Janeiro has confessed to murdering Greece's ambassador to Brazil in a plot carried out at the direction of the diplomat's Brazilian wife with whom he was romantically involved.
Evaristo Pontes Magalhaes, Rio' homicide division chief, told a news conference on Friday that Ambassador Kyriakos Amiridis was murdered in a "crime of passion."
His corpse was found Thursday evening in his burned-out white rental car parked under a highway overpass at Nova Iguacu, 41 kilometers (25 miles) north of Rio de Janeiro.
Amiridis had been declared missing by his wife, Francoise, on Wednesday. She and the suspected officer were later taken into custody and questioned.
