Brazil Pair accused of murder of politician on trial at last

It was not even 10pm and the football match she was watching on TV had still not finished when Luyara Franco, then 19, decided to go to bed. But then the phone started ringing. First, a friend called and asked if she was all right. Then an ex-boyfriend called: "He said he was working up the courage to tell me what had happened."

In shock, she returned to the living room. "I think something's happened to my mother," Luyara remembers saying. Her grandfather switched the TV to a news channel, and it didn't take long for the devastating headline to appear: Luyara's mother, the Rio city councillor Marielle Franco, 38, had been murdered.

"That long night has still not ended," said Luyara, now 25. Yesterday, six years and seven months after the assassination of Franco and her driver, Anderson Gomes, 39, the two former police officers accused of carrying out the March 2018 crime went on trial.
