Paraná police arrests convicted rapists

Entities: Cambé, Paraná · Paraná State Police · Apucarana, Paraná · convicted rapist (unnamed) · 66‑year‑old farmer (unnamed)

Overview

In July 2026, Paraná state police executed court orders to detain two men convicted of child sexual abuse, arresting a 42‑year‑old in São Mateus do Sul and a 70‑year‑old in Apucarana. The operations were presented as part of ongoing efforts to enforce judicial decisions and combat violent crime.

By early August 2026, the police continued this enforcement drive, capturing another convicted rapist—serving more than 21 years for sexual assault of a minor—while he was operating a tractor near Cambé. The suspect was placed in the local jail, underscoring the sustained focus of Paraná authorities on apprehending individuals with outstanding arrest warrants for serious sexual offenses.
