Gravediggers in the state of Minas Gerais called the cops after noticing the tomb had been freshly sealed with bricks and cement.
They also spotted blood stains.
When officers arrived at the scene, they heard the woman crying for help, opened the tomb, and pulled her out.
She was rushed to a local hospital with serious head injuries.
The woman told how two masked men took her to the cemetery, assaulted her and sealed her in the tomb.
The Military Police said she had been keeping drugs for the two men – but she had “misplaced” them.
But the Civil Police gave the motive as a dispute over a firearm.
Officers are still hunting for the suspects, who have reportedly been identified.
It is not clear how long the woman was trapped in the tomb.
It comes after a three-year-old girl reportedly woke up at her own funeral after doctors allegedly wrongly told her parents she had died from a stomach bug.
Camila Roxana Martinez Mendoza was declared deceased 12 hours before the service – but began to stir while trapped inside the coffin.
In a cruel twist, the youngster later died after being dashed back to hospital by her mortified relatives.
We also previously told how a woman died of a heart attack from shock after waking up in a coffin at her own funeral.
Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov, 49, had been wrongly declared dead by doctors – but kicked the bucket for real after hearing mourners at her own funeral procession in Kazan, Russia.
And in 2020, mourners had the fright of their lives when a corpse they were burying appeared to wave from inside a coffin.
