A fundraising campaign has been set up to help the family of Jady Cristine Pereira Rosa pay the costs associated with the repatriation and funeral
Irish police have launched a murder probe after a Brazilian woman was found dead in a flat in Limerick. A fundraising campaign has been launched to assist the family of Jady Cristine Pereira Rosa with the costs of repatriating her remains and arranging a funeral.
The Brazilian national was discovered dead at a flat on Cecil Street in Limerick City at approximately 7.30am on August 21. Gardaí have since opened a murder investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death, reports Dublin Live.
Officers confirmed they would not be disclosing the findings of the post-mortem examination for “operational reasons.”
The fundraiser was established by Jady’s nearest and dearest to afford her a “dignified farewell in her home country.
“Today we come together for a reason no one should ever have to face” reads the fundraiser. “Our dear Jady, a Brazilian who was living in Limerick, Ireland, had her life tragically taken. In this moment of immense grief, we want to help her family give her the dignified farewell she deserves in her home country, surrounded by the people who love her.”
“Jady’s employer will cover the cost of transporting her body from Ireland to Brazil. However, there are still important expenses that must be covered so she can be transported from the airport in São Paulo to her hometown, as well as the costs of her wake and burial.”
The appeal was set up solely to cover the cost of transporting Jady’s remains from São Paulo airport to her final resting place, along with funeral, burial and any other expenses directly connected to her farewell. “Any contribution, no matter the amount, will make a difference and will be a meaningful gesture of kindness and solidarity with her family during this incredibly difficult time.”
A Garda spokesperson confirmed on Saturday afternoon that a murder investigation had been launched.
“A Family Liaison Officer has been assigned to support the family of the deceased. The scene remains preserved, and a technical examination is ongoing by the Garda Technical Bureau.
“A Senior Investigating Officer (SIO) has been appointed to lead the investigation. An incident room has been established at Henry Street Garda Station.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Henry Street Garda Station on (061) 212400.
