Brazilian woman wheels dead uncle into a bank and tries to get him to 'sign off' a loan in her name

This is the moment a woman wheeled a corpse into a bank and allegedly tried to get him to 'sign off' a loan in her name while holding his head up in front of suspicious staff.

Video shows the woman telling the dead man to grip hold of his pen hard as she placed it between his fingers and encouraged him to sign a piece of paper at the bank branch in Bangu, a neighbourhood in the western area of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The footage showed the dead man's head swaying back and forth before she grabbed hold of his neck with her left hand from behind.

She urged him: 'Sign here and stop giving me a headache' but was met by a logical silence from the man she was pretending to have a conversation with.

Bank employees started filming the pair and ended up calling for an ambulance and police as the woman used her hand to keep the deceased pensioner's head upright and told him: 'Uncle, are you listening?

You have to sign it.

I can't sign for you.' Paramedics called to the scene confirmed that the deceased pensioner, Paulo Roberto Braga, 68, had passed away a few hours earlier.

The woman who wheeled him into the bank, Erika de Souza Vieira Nunes, was arrested at the scene and told police she was his niece as well as his carer.

Officials have appeared to signal they are related and are said to be checking CCTV cameras inside and outside the bank to see if Mr Braga's family member was on her own or with alleged accomplices amid suspicion they could be dealing with an organised fraud.

The results of a post-mortem to establish cause of death have not yet been made public.
