Three-year-old boy sexually abused by teenage uncle in Felgueiras

A three-year-old boy is believed to have been a victim of sexual abuse by his 12-year-old uncle in Felgueiras. The case was discovered when the child was taken to a hospital unit, where health professionals alerted the GNR (National Republican Guard) due to suspicions of abuse. The Judicial Police took over the investigation and the child was transferred to Hospital Padre Américo in Penafiel. Given that the alleged perpetrator is 12 years old, the case will be reported to the Family and Minors Court, as in Portugal, minors between the ages of 12 and 16 may be subject to measures under the Educational Guardianship Law. The PJ will now investigate the circumstances under which the alleged abuse is believed to have occurred.
