The Civil Police of the State of São Paulo have opened a formal investigation into Alexandre “TitaN” Lima, the former ADC for paiN Gaming. The case involves complaints from three separate women and covers three distinct criminal charges: dissemination of pornography, rape of a vulnerable person, and sexual harassment.
The police report was filed on Sunday, March 8, 2026. Brazilian outlet VTV News, part of the SBT media group, published details of the investigation on the morning of March 10.
According to the VTV News report, the Public Security Secretariat of São Paulo (SSP-SP) confirmed the nature of the charges. The three victims reportedly chose to come forward together rather than individually, out of fear that going public alone would lead to social media backlash and unwanted exposure. TitaN is a well-known figure in the Brazilian League of Legends scene, and that visibility made individual complaints feel risky for each of the women involved.
What the Victims Have Alleged
The first accusation involves the alleged non-consensual sharing of intimate content. According to the report, TitaN told one of the victims he would send a video of himself engaged in a sexual act with a former girlfriend. He then reportedly sent a temporary file to the victim. This particular allegation had surfaced publicly earlier this year, when the victims indicated in January 2026 that they intended to file a joint legal complaint.
The second accusation is far more severe. One victim alleges that TitaN touched her while she was unconscious and unable to give consent. In conversations shared with VTV News, the woman confronted TitaN about what happened, reiterating that she was not conscious when the contact began. She also questioned him about whether he had used protection during the act.
The third victim is a 16-year-old girl. Her case was the one that first triggered TitaN’s suspension from paiN Gaming. According to previously leaked conversations, TitaN sent the minor messages with suggestive, double-meaning language, along with a semi-nude photograph. The girl cut off contact immediately after receiving the image and reported the incident to Gabriela Gabzuski, who was TitaN’s girlfriend at the time. The minor’s parents are reportedly backing her complaint fully and have stated they intend to see the legal process through to its conclusion.
Evidence supporting all three allegations reportedly includes images, videos, and audio recordings.
TitaN’s Earlier Response and His Firing from paiN Gaming
TitaN broke his public silence in February 2026. He admitted to cheating on his partner and acknowledged having conversations with a minor. On the same day, he stated publicly that he was not facing any criminal charges and had not committed any crime.
Gabzuski pushed back on that framing at the time. She pointed out that the lawsuit was still being prepared and that the legal process takes time. She noted that TitaN was simply taking advantage of the fact that he had not yet been formally summoned to claim there was nothing to worry about.
That window closed on March 10, 2026, when paiN Gaming officially terminated TitaN’s contract. The organization released a statement on X (formerly Twitter) confirming his departure. paiN Gaming said the decision was grounded in its principles and the responsibility it holds toward its history, its community, and what the organization represents.
What Happens Next
The investigation remains active. The São Paulo Civil Police are continuing their work on the case, and no trial date or formal charges beyond the initial police report have been announced as of this writing.
This is a developing story. Updates will follow as the legal proceedings move forward.
