According to information from the Civil Police of Minas Gerais (PCMG), the operation ‘Behind the Masks’ carried out preventive arrest and search and seizure warrants at the residence of a 22-year-old woman.

“Investigated for crimes of threat, corruption of minors, incitement to commit crimes, apology for crime and dissemination of information or news that she knows to be false”, says the PCMG.

The investigation takes place after the police have access to videos circulating on the suspect’s social networks, which clearly allude to a threat to schools in the city.

“Where he posted content inciting young people to commit crimes of massacres at schools, threatening students and teachers at a public school in Governador Valadares”, he comments.

The PCMG managed to arrest the woman preventively. At her house, three masks inspired by the character from the movie “The Panic” were found. Two cell phones and a long-sleeved blouse were also seized.

“The young woman is very well known on her social networks for the large number of views on her posts, mainly on the video sharing social media, where she has more than four million followers”, says delegate Márdio Bento Costa.

According to the delegate, she has already been investigated for committing the crime of false identity and ideological falsehood.
