In a bizarre turn of events, the wife of footballer Diogo Jota has shocked the world with a stunning claim: she believes the cause of her husband’s tragic accident — which led to his untimely death — is not what authorities initially reported.
According to exclusive sources, Rita Pereira, Jota’s widow, has demanded a second autopsy be conducted on her husband’s body, after a strange dream she had just days after his passing.
“I saw him clearly in my dream, speaking to me. He said that the truth about his death was hidden,” Rita told close friends. “He told me the cause of the crash was not what everyone had been told.”
The dream was vivid, she said, and left her deeply unsettled, prompting her to take the unprecedented step of contacting authorities. She claimed that in her dream, Jota conveyed a sense of urgency that something was amiss — and that the official cause of death, which was initially deemed a “tragic accident,” was not the full story.
“I was told that the injuries Jota sustained were not consistent with the crash. He was trying to communicate with me. It felt real,” she added, visibly shaken.
Jota, 27, tragically passed away earlier this month following a single-car crash on a remote stretch of road. Official reports stated that the accident occurred due to speeding and slippery conditions, with no other vehicles involved. However, the mystery surrounding the circumstances of his death has now taken a shocking new twist.
Friends and family have expressed concern over Rita’s claims, but she remains adamant that something is not right. She has also reportedly been in contact with forensic experts to request a second autopsy on Jota’s body, in the hope of uncovering any overlooked evidence.
“I can’t just let this go,” Rita said. “If there is any truth to what I saw in that dream, I have to know. Diogo deserves the truth, and so does our family.”
The request for a second autopsy is currently being reviewed by local authorities, who have stated that they are investigating Rita’s concerns and will take the necessary steps.
The police have also confirmed that they will re-examine the scene of the accident, as well as reviewing Jota’s vehicle, to ensure that no evidence was missed during the initial investigation.
This mysterious development has left many asking questions about the circumstances surrounding Jota’s death, and whether there may have been more to the accident than originally believed.
Speculation has already begun circulating in the media, with some fans and media outlets suggesting that Jota may have been the victim of foul play — or that the crash may have been part of a much larger conspiracy.
As Rita’s request for a second autopsy gains traction, the world is now waiting to see if any new answers will emerge in this unsettling and unexplained tragedy.
“I know this is a lot to ask, but I have to follow my instincts. I won’t rest until I know the truth,” Rita added.
