A Serbian man who was murdered in front of his family last week in Brazil has now been identified as a hitman wanted by Interpol for several contract killings.
“The investigation shows that he is living here secretly and under a false name of Slovenia,” the head of the investigation, Luiz Ricardo Lara Dias Jr., told reporters on Friday.
Dias Jr said that Interpol had wanted the man for nearly a decade and that police believed his murder may have been linked to his criminal past.
Local police this week identified the victim as Darko Geisler, 43, after consulting the Slovenian consulate in São Paulo based on a passport found on the victim — only to learn that the passport was not his, but that of a Slovenian citizen who lost it in 2017.
A reverse search for Geisler’s photo online helped police identify him as a Serbian hitman wanted in Montenegro for multiple murders and possession of weapons and explosives, Jam Press reported. Montenegrin authorities confirmed that Geisler was a contract killer.
Police now believe that Geisler has been living in Brazil for nine years, hiding his identity after he fled Montenegro to Bosnia following the execution of a man at a prison door on Christmas Day in 2014. He disappeared after that, resurfacing now that he have met him. over.

After settling in Brazil, Geisler met his future partner in 2015 or 2016 and moved to Santos. His wife claims she does not know about his true identity.
People close to the couple told local channel Folha de S.Paulo that the truth about Geisler’s past did not match the man they knew: Geisler used to take his son to school and mingled with other parents from the neighborhood, despite speaking little Portuguese.

Another neighbor said that Geisler often played games with his son in the street and that he often visited the local bakery with his family. He would visit every day to pick up cigarettes, and he told everyone he worked as a carpenter.
He claimed that his family received money from a business he owned in his “home country” of Slovenia.
Geisler met his death while with his family. CCTV footage showed Geisler with his wife and three-and-a-half-year-old son as they returned home and stored their bikes when a gunman ran across the street and shot Geisler at close range.

The killer wore a mask and gloves and fled the scene in a black car, leaving no trace. His identity is still unknown. A neighbor who heard the gunshots and Geisler’s wife screamed called Military Police and emergency services, and he was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
Brazilian police continue to search for Geisler’s killer. Authorities believe his criminal past may have played a role in his death, and police in Brazil and Montenegro will work together to solve the mystery.
