Cecilia Haddad, 38, was found dead in the Lane Cove River in Sydney on Sunday after she was reported missing by friends, <a href="https://www.police.nsw.gov.au/news/news?sq_content_src=%2BdXJsPWh0dHBzJTNBJTJGJTJGZWJpenByZC5wb2xpY2UubnN3Lmdvdi5hdSUyRm1lZGlhJTJGNzAyMjguaHRtbCZhbGw9MQ%3D%3D">police reports</a> in Sydney stated.<br />
Police are searching for Mario Marcelo Santoro, a former boyfriend and business partner of Haddad’s who recently split from her.<br />
Santoro jetted from Sydney to Brazil over the weekend. Police said he is a person of interest, and not a suspect. They are using a liaison officer in South America to try to make contact with him.<br />
Haddad&#8217;s body was found by kayakers about 10.15am on Sunday, April 29. It was initially believed that she had drowned accidentally, but police quickly began investigating her death as suspicious.</p>

<p>Investigators are working to reconstruct her final 24 hours. She attended a barbecue with friends Friday night and last chatted with pals the next morning. Her red 2013 Fiat 500 sedan was seen outside her home Saturday afternoon, into Sunday.<br />
An autopsy was completed Wednesday but details haven’t officially been released.<br />
But a preliminary report confirms she was murdered, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.<br />
Haddad, who moved to Australia in 2007, and Santoro owned a business called D.Care together. She had worked for a mining company in Western Australia and moved to New South Wales two years ago to take a job at freight company Pacific National.<br />
She had recently started her own business, <a href="https://www.ceciliahaddad.com/" data-reactid="531">CHC Consulting</a>, in the Putney area after leaving her job as the head of operational planning at freight company Pacific National.</p>

<p>Haddad’s mother Milu Muller told the publication that her daughter was “always a very talented, intelligent girl with a pure heart.”<br />
“I want people to know that she did not believe that people were cruel and selfish. She always forgave and gave people one more chance. I think she was too good for this world,” Muller wrote in Portuguese in an email from her home in Rio de Janeiro. “Maybe if they arrest the murderer, I may have some relief. Thank you and please do everything to help catch the monster who did this.”<br />
Cecilia Haddad&#8217;s ex-husband, Felipe Torres, flew from Western Australia to formally identify her body. It is understood he was in Perth at the time of her death.<br />
Police initially said her death was not being treated as suspicious, but revealed in the early hours of Wednesday that a homicide investigation had been launched.<br />
Authorities are keen to speak to anyone who may have seen her or the car after that time and before it was found at West Ryde station: “We are specifically seeking CCTV or dash-cam footage of Cecilia or her vehicle, possibly in the Hunters Hill, Ryde, Top Ryde, West Ryde, and Woolwich areas over the weekend,” police spokesperson, Detective Insp. Ritchie Sim said.</p>
