Eighty of the 118 Haitians detained at Viracopos Airport were taken under the care of the social assistance of the City Hall of Campinas, according to Danielle Pizetta, head of the regional department of migrations. On Sunday (15), five of the Haitians were able to travel to other cities while three remained under the city's care. The group had been held in a reserved area of the terminal for over 55 hours after their plane landed in Campinas on Saturday (14), and they had made requests for asylum and received humanitarian visas in a coordinated effort led by the Federal Police.

This action was a joint effort between the Federal Government and the local government. The majority of Haitians expressed a desire to continue their journey to other destinations. They were taken to the Campinas bus station, where they were able to purchase tickets and embark on routes to cities where they have relatives or friends, indicating a continued interest in family connections and community support as they navigate their migration journey.

The detainment was initiated after the Federal Police identified issues with the group's documentation upon landing, which highlights ongoing challenges related to migration policies and the need for comprehensive support systems for migrants arriving in Brazil. The situation sheds light on the broader implications of migration in Brazil, particularly concerning Haitian migrants, and illuminates the complexities faced by authorities in balancing humanitarian assistance with regulatory compliance.
