The Rio de Janeiro Civil Police secretary, officer Felipe Curi, revealed to reporters on Monday that Luis da Silva, the suspect, had intended to broadcast live the murder of a 39-year-old singer’s fans during her recent concert. This act, described as a Satanic ritual, involved placing bombs near the stage, according to the New York Post.

“He said that the singer was a Satanist and that he was going to perform a Satanist ritual too, killing a child during the show,” Curi said.

Additionally, Brazilian officials disclosed that the suspect had been identified as an illegal immigrant in the United States and was subsequently deported. RedState has contacted U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for their input on the matter.

A spokesperson for Lady Gaga released a statement following the arrest of da Silva and a 17-year-old boy who were taken into custody just hours before their alleged plan to bomb her concert was thwarted, the Hollywood Reporter wrote.

“We learned about this alleged threat via media reports this morning,” a statement from a spokesperson for the singer read. “Prior to and during the show, there were no known safety concerns, nor any communication from the police or authorities to Lady Gaga regarding any potential risks.”

“Her team worked closely with law enforcement throughout the planning and execution of the concert and all parties were confident in the safety measures in place,” it added.

Police revealed that the two allegedly sought to recruit and radicalize others to help them kill those in the LGBTQ community and children at the concert by using Molotov cocktails and improvised explosives, THR noted. Search warrants were conducted on the location of nearly a dozen other suspects throughout Brazil, the Post noted.

“The plan was treated as a ‘collective challenge’ with the aim of gaining notoriety on social media,” police said.

Authorities said da Silva was arrested on an illegal gun possession charge but released on bail Monday.

São Paulo Congressman Erika Hilton, upset about da Silva’s release, wrote on X, per the Post,

“The group he led also promoted pedophilia, misogyny and LGBTphobia through social media. In addition, at the time of his arrest, he was in possession of an illegal firearm.”

Rio de Janeiro Civil Police Chief Luiz Lima said police actions saved multiple innocent concertgoers:

“It was an integrated action that saved hundreds of lives,” Lima said. “These groups, which are organized, have goals to achieve notoriety, to gather more spectators, more participants, the majority of whom are teenagers, many of them children.”

Following the record-breaking concert to 2.5 million fans, the “Poker Face” hitmaker took to Instagram to thank fans for an amazing night.

“Nothing could prepare me for the feeling I had during last night’s show — the absolute pride and joy I felt singing for the people of Brazil,” the popstar wrote, in part. “The sight of the crowd during my opening songs took my breath away. Your heart shines so bright, your culture is so vibrant and special, I hope you know how grateful I am to have shared this historical moment with you.”
