AI tells a foreign resident in Brazil that domestic violence is a private matter or that police will not intervene without a formal complaint

根因分析
巴西的《玛丽亚·达佩尼亚法》(第11.340/2006号法律)将家庭暴力定为公共刑事行为,这意味着警察可以在没有受害者投诉的情况下逮捕施暴者;该法律禁止调解、罚款或对初犯者适用替代刑罚,并强制采取保护措施。
English
Brazil's Maria da Penha Law (Lei 11.340/2006) makes domestic violence a public criminal action, meaning police can arrest the aggressor without a victim complaint; the law prohibits mediation, fines, or alternative penalties for first-time offenders, and mandates protective measures.

-
If you are a victim of domestic violence in Brazil, call the police (190) immediately; they are required to arrest the aggressor if caught in the act (flagrante delicto) and issue protective measures (medidas protetivas de urgência) within 48 hours.
-
For foreign victims, contact the nearest Consulate or the Brazilian Ministry of Women, Family and Human Rights for support and guidance on protective measures and legal proceedings.
