José Aprígio da Silva

José Aprígio da Silva is a Brazilian politician who served as the mayor of Taboão da Serra, a municipality located on the outskirts of São Paulo. In October 2022, he was allegedly the target of a staged assassination attempt that was purportedly orchestrated by his supporters to gain public sympathy ahead of the local elections. Despite being injured in the incident, Silva's re-election bid ultimately failed, leading to questions regarding the authenticity of the attack and his potential involvement in the alleged scheme.
