A 15-year-old teenager was rescued by the Federal Police (PF), on the night of this Tuesday (14), in a boat on the Mucajaí River, in the Yanomami Indigenous Land, in Roraima. According to the police, the girl was co-opted into prostitution in illegal mining in the indigenous area and spent more than 20 days in the region. The federal police found other women on the boat, who had also been taken into prostitution. “To the Federal Police, the teenager reported that she would have received a proposal to be a cook at the mining through a contact on a social network and that she would have left for the mining on a flight the day after the contact. During the journey, the minor met four other women who would also have been co-opted into prostitution in Yanomami Land,” says a PF note. The girl’s mother had registered, on February 12, a missing person report, for not having heard from her daughter. The Federal Police informed that it is investigating the organization involved in the co-option of women and teenagers for prostitution in mining areas in the state. The patrolling action, which resulted in the rescue of the teenager, was supported by Ibama, the Armed Forces, the National Public Security Force, Funai and the PRF.
