Explanation:

There were reports that state police committed unlawful killings. In some cases police employed indiscriminate force. The Brazilian Public Security Forum reported police killed 6,160 civilians in 2018, compared with 5,225 in 2017. The extent of the problem was difficult to determine, however, because comprehensive, reliable statistics on unlawful police killings were not available.

On September 27, eight-year-old Agatha Vitoria Sales Felix was returning home to the Complexo do Alemão neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro in a van with her mother when a bullet hit the girl and killed her. Rio military police officers reported drug traffickers opened fire on officers who retaliated with gunfire, but residents denied there was a mass confrontation in the favela (informal housing development) at the time of the shooting. According to these witnesses, the girl’s death was caused when a police officer fired at a motorcyclist who had not complied with an order to stop. The Federal Prosecutor’s Office requested that the Federal Public Ministry of Rio de Janeiro instead of the police force investigate the case. According to one media report, police failed to conduct a proper investigation. The lawyer representing the family and the owner of the van said the driver cleaned his van, the scene of the crime, before police could search it for evidence. On September 25, the ministry announced it was investigating the case.
