BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — A small boat full of decomposing corpses was spotted by fishermen off Brazil’s northeastern coast on Saturday, according to local news reports.
Brazil’s Attorney General’s office said in a statement that it has dispatched a forensics team to the area to determine where the bodies and the boat came from.
“Some reports say there could be up to 20 corpses” in the boat, the Attorney General’s office said in a statement. The office announced it is opening a criminal and a civil investigation into the incident.
The boat was floating off the coast of the state of Para in a remote location about 300 kilometers (185 miles) from the state capital Belem.
It wasn’t the first time that vessels carrying dead bodies were spotted by fishermen in the western side of the Atlantic Ocean. In 2021, at l east seven boats full of corpses washed up in Brazil and the Eastern Caribbean.
