Forty minutes after the start of the new year, and his birthday, De Lima parked the car in front of Veneto Holiday Beach Hotel & Casino. The four passengers got out of the car and entered the hotel, while De Lima remained behind the wheel.
At that moment an unknown man appeared and started shooting at him. The Lima stepped on the gas pedal and accelerated, but the car stopped a little further in the parking lot.
There, De Lima succumbed to his injuries. His body was found by the police on the floor next to the car. The circumstances of the murder has never been clarified. The four youngsters who were in the car with him were arrested and questioned by the police. Two of them have been released after their interrogation, the other two have been brought before the assistant public prosecutor.
