Luis da Silva, a 44-year-old man arrested before Lady Gaga's concert in Brazil, allegedly plotted a bombing due to his belief that the singer is a 'Satanist.' He aimed to perform a ritual sacrifice during the show, which was attended by 2.5 million fans. The police have indicated that he and a teenage accomplice planned to use weapons such as Molotov cocktails and explosives. Their links to hate speech communities targeting the LGBTQ+ community have also been highlighted, emphasizing the dangerous nature of their intentions.
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.
