In Uberaba, Brazil, an 18-year-old man was apprehended for robbing a 31-year-old woman following a sexual encounter that took place on Friday morning, the 13th. The incident occurred in a prostitution house after the two arranged the meeting through a mobile application, highlighting the risks involved in such arrangements in the sex work industry.

The victim reported that after the sexual service was completed, the assailant threatened her with a firearm and demanded her belongings. He successfully stole her handbag, a mobile phone, and approximately R$ 700 before fleeing the scene. His actions reflect a concerning trend of violence and theft in the context of sex work, where individuals may face significant dangers from clients.

The police were able to track down the suspect through the app used to arrange the encounter. Responding to a tip-off during their patrol, they located him at his home and discovered a replica firearm on him, alongside the stolen goods in his possession. This case raises important discussions about the safety and legal protections available for sex workers, as well as the measures that can be taken to prevent such crimes from occurring in the future.
