[0:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=4) It's two children in a bag. So, the children were inside a bag, tied up. There is a version, as I said, there is a version… that… in other words, there is a version according to which the children were in transit. They were going to a sale transaction.

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=26) Therefore, we are talking about human trafficking, trafficking of people.

[0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=31) Something punishable in our… in our legal system, right?

[0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=37) It is punished by law, it is a crime. The other version is that the children were kidnapped and the father was asked for the sum of 200,000 meticais as ransom.

[0:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=56) We are also facing a crime. In either case, we are facing crimes. The… there are two common elements in both, in both versions. The first common element is that there was a violation of children's rights.

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=79) There was a tremendous violation of children's rights. The second common element is that, both in the case of kidnapping and sale, the amount in question is the same, it's 200,000 meticais. It's the same. Now, it's hard to know which of these two is the true version. Why? Because…

[1:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=106) right? Huh? It's complicated. Put, put that on, Alex. People need to see what happens… Ah, exactly, that's it.

[1:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=113) People need to see what is happening in the country. How is such a thing possible? What… what self- respecting father, right? A father of average diligence, let's put it that way, will allow his child to be put in a bag, his children to be put in a bag and be traded as if they were peanuts? Friends, we are talking about

[2:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=139) human lives, we are talking about people. This is no joke. This is no joke.

[2:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=148) We are talking about human dignity, we are talking about respect for the human being. This is no joke. How… how can we are talking about respect for the human being. This is no joke. How… how can someone take two minors, put them in a bag, tie it up?

[2:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=160) Did that person actually sleep? Did they fall asleep? Did that person eat?

[2:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=165) Does that person have children? Does that person have a heart?

[2:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=175) So, there are many things we can question here. Right?

[2:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=178) There are many things we can question. Hmm? There are many things we can question. Because…

[3:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=190) because no, it doesn't make much sense. It doesn't make much sense. Hmm?

[3:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=197) This doesn't make much sense. This doesn't make much sense. This doesn't make the slightest bit of sense. They are there, children. These children were at risk, just to finish, they were even at risk of dying from suffocation,

[3:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=219) as they were tied up inside a bag. Horrific. And as bizarre as this may seem, even with the rescue, the children, visibly weakened, perhaps they didn't even receive any medical assistance. My friends, no…

[3:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=237) we can't play around like this. We can't play around like this, huh?

[4:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/DupCtmPFc3sf/en/two-children-found-in-a-sack-trafficking-or-kidnapping-suspected?t=244) This is a serious matter. They are people, they are our children.
