Who was Sabine Boghici?

Sabine Boghici, 49, was a Brazilian actress, model and heiress.

She was the daughter of one of Brazil's biggest art collectors, the late Jean Boghici.

He owned one of Brazil's most important collections of the 20th century and died in 2015 at the aged 87.

What crimes did Sabine Boghici commit?

In August 2022, Sabine and her wife were arrested for allegedly scamming Sabine's mum Genevieve out of £120 million in cash, artwork and jewellery.

Investigators said that the late actress plotted against her mum in 2020, and allegedly paid for a woman to pose as a psychic - with the woman approaching Geneviève on the street to warn her of her daughter’s imminent death.

According to investigators, she then took her to two other women posing as a fortune teller and a priestess who suggested to pay for ''spiritual work'' to save her daughter.

After fearing for her daughter's life, the mum began making fortnightly transfers, before realising she was being conned in February.

Geneviève then stopped making payments.

Police accused Sabine of stealing 16 paintings worth £118million from her late father's collection.

These included works by Tarsila do Amaral and Emiliano Di Cavalcanti.

The alleged scam included nearly £1 million worth of jewellery and £2.2 million in payments.

Sabine, who was due to attend a court hearing on September 21, was released on bail in March.

Was Sabine Boghici married and did she have children?

As mentioned above, Sabine was married to her wife Rosa Stanesco Nicolau - who is currently behind bars for her alleged role in the scam.

She was also due to attend a court hearing alongside her wife.

Aside from this information, not much else is known about Sabine, including if she had any children.
