Fugitive caught in southern canals for sexual exploitation of minors: was in preventive detention

In the Chilean Antarctic Province, police officers from the Public Prosecutor's Office (PDI), working with maritime authorities, captured a 46-year-old man who was wanted for promoting the sexual exploitation of minors. The arrest took place in Caleta Doris, located on the northeast coast of Gilbert Island, during an inter-agency operation led by detectives from the PDI in Puerto Williams and personnel from the Maritime Police. The operation followed criminal analysis conducted by detectives from the Sexual Crimes Investigation Unit (Brisex) in Punta Arenas, which provided information on the suspect's whereabouts. The suspect had been on the run since June 2023, under an order issued by the Guarantee Court in Punta Arenas, as part of an investigation into child sexual exploitation that has been ongoing for over three years. The capture involved more than ten hours of navigation aboard the naval rescue boat LSR-4430 'Navarino', resulting in the detainee being found on a fishing vessel.
