Escape from Teleban to Brazil
Survey carried out at the request of Estadão by the International Migration Observatory (OBMigra), cooperation between the Ministry of Justice and the University of Brasília (UnB), points out that 3.367 Afghan immigrants entered the country from January to October this year – 98,9% of them via Guarulhos airport. The number is 13 times higher than that recorded last year. Many of them crowd airport lobbies and shelters, prone to disease.
