National Police agents in Arrecife have arrested a 34-year-old man with a police record as the perpetrator of child pornography and inducement to prostitution, sexual assault and childgrooming of minors, and exhibitionism. Once the police proceedings were completed, the detainee was placed at the disposal of the competent Judicial Authority, who ordered his immediate imprisonment.
The agents in charge of the investigation had arrested him in November of last year for a crime of childgrooming against a minor he coached in football, where several computers and mobile phones were seized during the house search.
The arrested man, who worked as a football coach in lower categories, used the same modus operandi, which consisted, first of all, of gaining the trust of the minors, and then, through social media, sending and requesting material with sexual content, as well as sexual physical encounters, with two minors declaring sexual assaults.
After the dumping and analysis of the effects seized by the specialists, the Family and Women's Care Unit (UFAM) in charge of the investigation has been able to identify and locate eight other victims, all of them minors whom he coached in football, who have confirmed and recounted the habitual practices used by the detainee.
Therefore, the agents set up a police operation in order to locate and proceed with the arrest of the investigated, which ended successfully on the 10th of this month.
