Overview
- Ágatha Isabelly, 6, and Allan Michael, 4, were last seen on January 4 in the Quilombo São Sebastião dos Pretos in Bacabal, Maranhão, and have been missing for eight months.
- The Federal Police’s international cooperation unit has placed Interpol tools at the family’s disposal and the children’s mother formally asked to include them in Interpol’s Difusão Amarela alert.
- The PF said it received the Difusão Amarela request and will analyze it before deciding whether to forward the case to Interpol for publication and sharing with member countries.
- U.S. authorities told Brazilian investigators that none of the 163 children recovered in a late‑August Florida operation are Brazilian, and Brazilian agents collected blood samples in São Luís to compare with those rescued in Florida.
- The state security office says the investigation remains open under judicial secrecy, officials warn that false social‑media claims have hampered the probe, and an Interpol alert could help trace leads or enable repatriation if the siblings are found abroad.
