According to Luís Neves, director of the Judiciary Police, quoted by CNN Portugal, the Angolan "made a bridge with the police authorities in South Africa".
Hidden in a luxury resort in South Africa, João Rendeiro was eventually arrested last Saturday by the South African police, with whom the Portuguese police had been in contact for some time and whose bridge between the two authorities was established by Angolan Arnaldo Manuel Carlos.
But after all, who is Arnaldo Manuel Carlos? The Angolan, who according to CNN Portugal is a longtime friend of Luís Neves, assumed the leadership of the SIC in 2019. Before that, he was the provincial delegate and commander of the National Police of Huíla.
Arnaldo Manuel Carlos, who joined the police in 1986, earned a law degree and a doctorate in Police and Criminal Science.
