Grenaldo de Jesus da Silva was a Brazilian sailor born on April 17, 1941, in São Luís do Maranhão. He served in the Ceará Navy Apprentice School for four years until expelled for political involvement supporting João Goulart, ousted in the 1964 military coup. Condemned to five years and two months in prison, he lived in hiding in Guarulhos. Grenaldo died in 1972 attempting to hijack a Varig flight. Officially ruled a suicide, evidence suggests he was executed by DOI/CODI-SP agents. His case is part of the Truth Commission's investigation of deaths and disappearances during Brazil's dictatorship.
