Rio de Janeiro, April 26 (IANS) Police in Brazil have arrested former Corinthians midfielder Pia for attempting to steal money from an automated teller machine (ATM). The 41-year-old was detained on Saturday in the city of Americana, about 100 km northwest of Sao Paulo, police said in a brief statement.

Pia, whose full name is Reginaldo Revelino Jandoso, played seven Brazilian Serie A matches for Corinthians in 2004. He also represented top-flight clubs Santos and Ponte Preta during his career.

It is not the first time Pia has got in trouble with the law and authorities.
