A 32-year-old [trans woman] was found dead on Monday, under an overpass located in the Aero Rancho neighborhood in Campo Grande. Edivaldo Quevedo da Fonseca was known in the region as 'Raíssa' and was a drug user.

The police were called early yesterday evening and the body was already rigid, indicating that the transvestite had been dead for at least five hours, the expert said.

Plastic packages were collected at the site, which are generally used for the use of drugs, in addition to medicines.
