A 49-year-old woman was kidnapped by two armed criminals on the afternoon of Saturday, June 20, 2026, in front of a beauty salon in Vila Sônia, in São Paulo's south zone. The assailants took the victim in her own car — a Jeep Renegade —, stole her cell phone and jewelry valued at R$ 20,000, and forced her to transfer R$ 2,900 via bank during the journey. She was released unharmed hours later on the Régis Bittencourt Highway, after cell phone tracking by police and family members. ✓

"Uma mulher de 49 anos foi sequestrada por dois criminosos na tarde deste sábado, 20, em frente a um salão de beleza na Vila Sônia, zona sul de São Paulo. A vítima foi levada no próprio carro e teve o celular, além de joias avaliadas em cerca de R$ 20 mil, roubados. Durante o crime, ela ainda foi obrigada a transferir R$ 2,9 mil aos assaltantes."
"A mulher foi libertada sem ferimentos em um trecho da Rodovia Régis Bittencourt e resgatada por equipes da Guarda Civil Metropolitana (GCM)."
According to the police report, the victim had just parked to get her nails done when she was approached. The two men — both wearing caps, one with a mask — entered the salon with her, took clients and employees to a storage room at gunpoint, and stole the cell phones of five other people present. The action lasted about three minutes inside the establishment. Next, they forced the woman into the back seat of her own vehicle next to one of the assailants, while the other drove. ✓

"Conforme o registro policial, a vítima chegou ao local em seu Jeep Renegade para fazer as unhas. Assim que estacionou, foi abordada pelos criminosos - os dois estavam de bonés e um deles usava máscara."
"A manicure que atenderia a vítima contou à polícia que ela e os clientes foram levados para a sala de estoque do salão pelos assaltantes, sob ameaça de armas."
"Na sequência, os criminosos entraram no salão junto com a vítima e permaneceram no estabelecimento por cerca de três minutos. Nesse período, roubaram os celulares de outras cinco pessoas que estavam no local."
The police were called by salon employees. With support from the victim's husband, they managed to track the cell phone, which indicated movement toward Taboão da Serra, in Greater São Paulo. The woman was rescued by Metropolitan Civil Guard (GCM) teams on a stretch of the Régis Bittencourt Highway. The case was registered at the 89th Police District, in Portal do Morumbi, as robbery and extortion. ✓
