An online fundraising campaign has been set up to help pay for the repatriation and funeral of a Brazilian woman found murdered in Limerick<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jady Cristine Pereira Rosa (33), originally from Sorocaba, Sao Paulo, was found dead at an apartment on Cecil Street at about 7.30am last Friday.<\/p>\n

The State Pathologist carried out a postmortem on her body, which confirmed she died a violent death.<\/p>\n

Garda\u00ed<\/a> said they were not releasing the results of the postmortem for \u201coperational reasons\u201d but it is believed she had been stabbed. <\/p>\n

It is understood investigators are seeking to question a man, known to the dead woman, as part of their murder inquiry.<\/p>\n

Jady Rosa had been living and working in Limerick for the past number of years.<\/p>\n

A GoFundMe fundraiser<\/a> to help towards the repatriation of her remains to her hometown in Brazil as well as her funeral costs had raised almost \u20ac4,000 of its intended \u20ac16,000 target by Sunday morning. <\/p>\n

A message posted by the fundraising campaign read: \u201cToday we come together for a reason no one should ever have to face. Our dear Jady, a Brazilian who was living in Limerick, Ireland, had her life tragically taken.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cJady\u2019s 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 Sao Paulo to her hometown, as well as the costs of her wake and burial.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAny 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,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Saturday, garda\u00ed said a family liaison officer has been assigned to support the dead woman\u2019s family and the scene remains preserved for a technical examination.<\/p>\n

A senior investigating officer has been appointed to lead the murder investigation and an incident room has been established at Henry Street Garda station.<\/p>\n

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Henry Street Garda station on (061) 212400.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An online fundraising campaign has been set up to help pay for the repatriation and funeral of a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":652170,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[40],"tags":[956,377,9,10,18,13,14,6,19,17,11,12,1844,15,16,5,7,8],"class_list":["post-652169","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ireland","tag-an-garda-siochana","tag-brazil","tag-breaking-news","tag-breakingnews","tag-eire","tag-featured-news","tag-featurednews","tag-headlines","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-latest-news","tag-latestnews","tag-limerick","tag-main-news","tag-mainnews","tag-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topstories"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/117144787833272696","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/652169","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=652169"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/652169\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/652170"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=652169"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=652169"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=652169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
