Kim Kataguiri: The numbers have grown in an almost uninterrupted manner since 2012.
Kim Kataguiri: Disque 100, the official channel of the Ministry of Human Rights and Citizenship, recorded, in just the first four months of 2023, more than 17,500 sexual violations against minors, a volume 68% higher than that recorded in the same period of 2022.
Underreporting, acknowledged by the competent bodies themselves, indicates that the real numbers are even more significant.
Kim Kataguiri: Equally worrying is the profile of recurrence of these crimes.
Kim Kataguiri: A survey by Fundação Abrinq itself indicates that almost 40% of the victims who sought care returned with reports of new episodes, that is, two out of five notifications involve victims who had already suffered sexual violence.
