Brazilian Mixed Martial Arts fighter, Joyce Vieira, was caught on camera punching a man for posing himself in front of her and masturbating during a recent photoshoot in Rio de Janeiro
The 27-year-old fighter claims the man, Josenei Viana Ferreira, 26, had his shorts down and was standing in front of her and her friend while performing a sex act on himself.
Dressing in a black swimsuit the martial artist took action by raining down a series of punches on the 26-year-old man, who was topless but dressed in swimming shorts.
She said: “When I looked over there he had his shorts down and was standing on a path where people pass all the time, including children. He was visibly erect, making sounds and moaning.”
In the photos, the martial artist, dressed in a black swimsuit, can be seen punching Ferreira.
Vieira reported the case with police and Ferreira was later arrested for committing an ‘obscene act’ but has since been released after giving a statement and denying the crime.
After his release, Vieira told local media:
“We feel powerless. It’s very strange because he’s going to be in the same city as me, and who knows he might be in the same places.
“That’s why I have received an innumerable number of messages from women saying that [in similar situations] they didn’t file a report, because they know the suspects would end up being released. I think the punishment for these cases should be more severe.”
Vieira says she had tried to speak to the man but he refused to speak to her so she reacted.
The Civil Police told reporters the suspect had claimed he ‘was urinating’ on the beach before Vieira approached him.
The Inspector Specialised in Attending to Women in Cabo Frio, Juliana Rattes, said the case will be taken to the Public Ministry ‘who will act together with Special Criminal Court’.
