Man is arrested for sexual harassment of his niece in Ponta Grossa
38-year-old man is arrested by NUCRIA in Ponta Grossa, suspected of sexually harassing his 15-year-old niece
A 38-year-old man was arrested in flagrante by the Civil Police of Paraná (PCPR), through the Child and Adolescent Victims Protection Center (NUCRIA), suspected of sexually molesting his own stepdaughter, a 15-year-old teenager, in Ponta Grossa. The arrest took place at Jardim Cachoeira, after a joint action between the school, the Guardian Council and the Civil Police.
According to the information provided by the police, the case happened during the early hours of the morning, while the teenager was carrying out school activities at her residence. At one point, the young woman left the room to ask for a pen from her stepfather, when he would have tried to hug her forcibly.
The teenager managed to move away and prevent the approach. According to the investigation, the man allegedly made comments and insinuations of a sexual nature. Faced with the situation, the young woman returned to the room.
The next morning, quite shaken, the teenager went to the school staff at the beginning of classes and reported what had happened.
School has triggered the Guardian Council
Upon taking note of the complaint, the educational institution immediately called on the Guardian Council, which forwarded the information to the NUCRIA of Ponta Grossa.
Based on the report, the civilian police began the diligence and moved to the residence of the investigated, located at Jardim Cachoeira. The man was found and arrested in flagrante.
The delegate Ana Paula Cunha Carvalho highlighted the importance of the integrated action of the bodies responsible for the protection of children and adolescents.
“The prompt response and the articulate work of the protection network culminated in the police diligence that resulted in the location and arrest in flagrante of the investigated. This is the real scope of networking,” the delegate said.
Protection network was fundamental
According to the Civil Police, the speed in the attendance of the occurrence was essential to ensure the protection of the adolescent and to enable the location of the suspect.
The joint action of the school, the Tutelar Council and NUCRIA reinforces the importance of reception and reporting channels in situations of violence against children and adolescents.
Cases of sexual violence against minors can be reported by the Human Rights Record, at number 100, or directly to the police authorities.
The case remains under the responsibility of the Civil Police, which will continue the legal procedures.
