Authorities in São Paulo have addressed separate incidents of sexual misconduct. In late October, police requested the preventive arrest of Bruno Edamatsu Berton following allegations of sexual harassment at a gym in the city’s South Zone. The victim reportedly provided video evidence of the incident. Berton denied the accusations, though authorities noted he was allegedly involved in a similar criminal action in June 2025.

In early November, police conducted Operation Íncubo in Santa Bárbara d'Oeste, resulting in the temporary arrest of a man suspected of internet extortion. The suspect allegedly recorded intimate video calls via dating apps and chat platforms without consent, subsequently demanding money to prevent the distribution of the material. Police executed search and seizure warrants and seized a mobile phone for forensic analysis to identify potential additional victims.
