Overview

  • The rollout took place at the State Operations and Intelligence Center in Salvador with Governor Jerônimo Rodrigues and the heads of Public Security and Women’s Policies present.
  • The catalog follows the Baralho do Crime model, with each card showing a photo, name, aliases, alleged crimes, and area of operation to aid identification.
  • It targets offenses committed in Salvador, the metropolitan region, and the state interior, extending access to information across police units.
  • Reports can be made anonymously to 181, emergencies should go to 190, and guidance for women is available via the national 180 line.
  • Authorities say the tool complements recent measures such as the Women’s Protection Battalion and the Civil Police’s Department for Women, Citizenship and Vulnerable People to improve statewide response.
