Former Brazilian soccer star Bruno Fernandes has been ordered to return to jail to continue serving a 22-year sentence over the kidnapping and gruesome murder of his ex-girlfriend.
However, he returned to his club's base in the small town of Varginha because police did not have the correct paperwork to detain him overnight.
Thiago Gomes, an investigator at the police station, said: "He came to the police station but we didn't have the documents to hold him".
A goalkeeper convicted over the murder of his girlfriend, whose body was fed to dogs, has been sent back to jail after he was controversially released.

Bruno, as he is universally known in Brazil, was freed in February by the top court pending an appeal against his 2013 sentence of 22 years prison for his role in the woman's slaying.
