00:00What can happen near the Congress?
00:02And the truth is that nothing.
00:03One imagines it is one of the most guarded places in Argentina.
00:06Well, a Russian proxenitor.
00:09A Russian proxenitor, very young, less than 30 years old, who forced and enslaved his partner.
00:15Sole, we are talking about the Casado Avenue at 300.
00:19This man, who you see on the screen, of Russian nationality, Alexander,
00:25had his own captive partner in his apartment,
00:31an apartment rented to three blocks from the Congress,
00:35to force her, as if she were a slave, to prostitute herself with different clients.
00:42This woman was rescued.
00:44Now we are going to see an image of Javi, and you will give us more information,
00:47but this is the moment of the arrest of Alexander Tsai,
00:51this Russian citizen, 28 years old, as you say.
00:55They are taking him for the action, I insist, of an association that fights against trafficking,
01:02that detected this case, that got involved, that pushed the police to the city,
01:06which also did a good job, of course, for this to come to light.
01:10The proxenitor, whom we are seeing on the screen, inside the Sole apartment,
01:15had all kinds of elements that prove, a priori,
01:19that in that place there were sexual activities for money,
01:23but also that open suspicions, look at what was seized in that apartment,
01:28to the possibility that videos were also filmed, which were then sold.
01:32Obviously, everything with a forced woman.
01:34Look, there are katanas, there are axes.
01:37Let's see, we are not talking about a couple that decides how to leave work,
01:41one films the other and uploads the videos to OnlyFans.
01:44We are talking about a woman enslaved and forced by this Russian man.
01:49She is also Russian, with an aggravating factor.
01:51They are out of their country, they are in a foreign and strange land,
01:56and she had no way of getting out of that situation.
01:59She was forced to everything that passed through that apartment.
02:03Exactly.
02:04Look, the division of crimes against, in this case, vulnerable groups,
02:10I want to mention it because it is a new division,
02:14not from now, but from a very short time ago,
02:16for precisely this type of events.
02:18Russian couple, they come to Argentina a couple of years ago,
02:22they settle here, they recorded erotic videos,
02:26that is, the woman agreed to this,
02:29until one day this man began to subdue her,
02:33he began to force her and added something else.
02:36What he wanted to do with her, and in fact he did,
02:38that's why he denounced her,
02:40is to start selling her sexually.
02:43Of course.
02:44This woman did not want it, he began to threaten her,
02:47he began to detain her,
02:48everything we always count on in human trafficking crimes,
02:52he kept her passport,
02:54he did not let her handle money,
02:56if she went out, she went out with him.
02:58He enslaved her.
02:59He practically enslaved her, he left her locked up,
03:02and we are talking a few meters from the Congress of the Nation.
03:05This happened, right?
03:06That ends up giving it an unusual character.
03:08We are right in that place,
03:10our partner Carlos Estrione is live,
03:13from the place where this Russian citizen was detained
03:17and a victim was released.
03:19Carlos, it is shocking to see the place where you are located,
03:23which is the Congress of the Nation.
03:25You're just there.
03:26Tell us, Carlos.
03:30How are you, comrades?
03:31Very good afternoon.
03:32The complete information is as you just told it.
03:34Now I'm going to show you the place where all this happened,
03:37because, as you said,
03:40three and a half blocks from the Congress of the Nation,
03:43339 Callao Avenue,
03:46in front, look, here on the right we have
03:48the house of the province of Coroba,
03:50the house of the government of Chaco,
03:51I mean, it is an area,
03:53I tell you, one of the busiest that the city of Buenos Aires has.
03:56And now I'm going to show you,
03:57because this was a place,
03:59and I want to put the point in the temporary rents,
04:03because this couple had rented here,
04:05on the 339, first floor, apartment 1,
04:08of Callao Avenue,
04:10through an application, the best known of all,
04:13of temporary rent for furnished apartments.
04:17Well, the issue is,
04:18what happens to a person who rents a place
04:21and loses, excuse me,
04:23loses contact with the people who are inside their apartment?
04:29This is the place.
04:30This is the place.
04:31The police arrived here, as Javier already said,
04:33but look, we are going to move so that they understand
04:35where we are working, yes?
04:37Hostel next door, yes?
04:39One of the most sought after areas by tourists.
04:42About two months ago,
04:44the police of the city, as they say in the slang,
04:46began to walk this place
04:48as a result of the complaint made by the association
04:50Mothers of Victims of Treason,
04:52and they came to rescue this woman,
04:54who is already in custody,
04:55she is already contained by the state,
04:57and the man, of course,
04:5928 years old, nothing more,
05:01of Russian nationality, detained.
05:03We are moving slowly,
05:05but for you to see,
05:06the great movement here and here.
05:08I have to say something too.
05:10They had never noticed any strange movement
05:13the other inhabitants of that building.
05:15Both the manager, the doorman,
05:17a cleaning lady,
05:18people who assisted the police at a time
05:20that they had to enter.
05:23They had never noticed any strange movement.
05:26But well, the truth is that this girl
05:28is being subjected by her boyfriend,
05:30and attention,
05:31because this young man is now detained
05:33under the law of treason,
05:35it is not a minor issue.
05:37We are talking about a high penalty
05:38and a very, very serious crime.
05:40Well, Margarita Meira is the mother
05:42of victims of treason,
05:43and she is precisely a person
05:45who participated in the rescue of this woman.
05:48Margarita, how are you?
05:50Good afternoon.
05:51Good afternoon, look,
05:53I'm coming back from a trial
05:56of Mercedes,
05:58we are in the car,
06:00so, well, tell me.
06:02How do you get the data
06:03of this situation
06:04that was happening in Congress?
06:07Look, a lady
06:12finds out that one of
06:16the tenants there is moving
06:19out of fear,
06:21because of the things she saw.
06:23And then she said,
06:25this can't be,
06:26and I make the complaint,
06:27and she made the complaint.
06:29So it's because of a neighbor
06:30who heard something,
06:31she didn't like it,
06:32she said, I'm leaving here,
06:33and that with everything she had seen,
06:35that's where the data comes to you.
06:37Of course.
06:38No, this lady made the complaint
06:40in 145,
06:42in the Protex,
06:45but it seems that
06:47the complaints were boxed,
06:48nothing happened,
06:49she got angry
06:51and told her,
06:52please,
06:53please,
06:54rescue the girl,
06:55rescue the girl.
06:56So, in 145,
06:58she said,
06:59well,
07:00if you are interested,
07:01you go to Cujado 6,
07:04of Comodoro Pi.
07:05Incredible what you are saying.
07:07Let's see, a woman,
07:08a citizen,
07:09the normal thing is that someone says,
07:11I'm not going to get into this mess,
07:12because I can't.
07:14That citizen
07:15commits,
07:16makes the complaint,
07:17does nothing,
07:18gets angry,
07:19insists,
07:20and they tell her,
07:21you don't need to,
07:22you don't care,
07:23get out of here.
07:24Of course,
07:25so there,
07:26a person,
07:27I don't know who it was,
07:28a friend of hers,
07:29told her,
07:30no,
07:31this is for mothers,
07:32go to a mother,
07:33because it is the only place
07:34where she is going to give them a hand.
07:35And well,
07:36she called us,
07:37she communicated through the networks,
07:38and we acted immediately,
07:41and well,
07:43there,
07:44the complaint was made,
07:45everything was done.
07:46You are heard.
07:47And,
07:48five days had passed,
07:50and they had not rescued her,
07:52then we stopped at the door.
07:54We said no,
07:56because we found out
07:58that she was leaving the hotel.
08:02Sure,
08:03that's quick action,
08:04the data is filtered,
08:05you have to act now.
08:07Yes,
08:08we stayed at the door,
08:09and well,
08:10when she left,
08:11in a minute,
08:12that she leaves,
08:14I get up,
08:16I offer help,
08:17the Castilian speaks to us,
08:19very little,
08:20and well,
08:21we convinced her,
08:22and we got her in a car,
08:24and we left.
08:25Margarita,
08:26this woman,
08:27she came to explain something
08:29about what she was experiencing,
08:30there was some kind of exchange,
08:32I understand the difficulty of the language,
08:34but what could you perceive
08:36about how she was,
08:37and what she was suffering?
08:39She speaks English,
08:41luckily,
08:42she speaks Russian,
08:43and she speaks English,
08:44and the one who accompanied me,
08:45she spoke English,
08:46then,
08:48we were able to understand each other,
08:50but,
08:51I,
08:52all the part,
08:53the judicial part,
08:56I can't give her more information,
08:59because that is handled by the legal team,
09:01as a mother.
09:02Now,
09:03I can tell her
09:04as far as I can rescue her,
09:05and I give her,
09:06as always,
09:07to the legal team,
09:08and there,
09:09the legal team takes care of her.
09:10Meira,
09:11and Javier Diaz,
09:12I greet you,
09:13because,
09:14we were,
09:15while we were talking to you,
09:16about the police of the city,
09:17I reiterate,
09:18the division of crimes
09:19against vulnerable groups
09:20and the treatment of people
09:21who went to rescue her from the place,
09:23when you saw her,
09:26how did you see her
09:27in terms of her face,
09:29her psychological state,
09:31and so on?
09:32Because she came
09:33very oppressed by this man.
09:35Destroyed,
09:36destroyed,
09:37with blows
09:38all over the body,
09:39on the face,
09:40an eye,
09:41with a spill,
09:42no,
09:43no,
09:44not bad.
09:45I grab her arm,
09:47because I know
09:48that she asked for help,
09:50so I grab her arm
09:51and I say,
09:52I help you,
09:53and well,
09:54that's all I could tell her,
09:55and then she started crying.
09:57Sure,
09:58there she loosened up
09:59because she was not alone.
10:00Margarita...
10:01But yes,
10:02but she was very afraid.
10:03Was she alone?
10:04She was very afraid,
10:05very afraid.
10:06And yes,
10:07she was alone in this country,
10:08she does not speak,
10:09notice how many ways
10:10this man had
10:11to really enslave her.
10:12Was she alone,
10:13or were there
10:14other women?
10:15No,
10:16she was alone.
10:17She spent two years
10:18in Europe,
10:19she took him
10:20to Kazakhstan
10:21and I don't know
10:22what other countries,
10:23and then she brought him
10:24to Argentina
10:25two years ago.
10:26She was everywhere.
10:27Did you see
10:28all the elements
10:29that the police
10:30seized in the place,
10:31a katana,
10:32sexual weapons,
10:33knives,
10:34and so on?
10:35No,
10:36no,
10:37not yet.
10:38Look,
10:39I'm coming back
10:40from another trial
10:41and I don't know
10:42what else
10:43I'm coming back
10:44from another trial
10:45and we have another trial.
10:46I'm coming back
10:47and I still
10:48couldn't meet
10:49with the lawyer
10:50to ask him
10:51in detail
10:52because the truth
10:53is that
10:54if I tell him
10:55I'm afraid,
10:56I do my job
10:57which is to rescue her
10:58and bring her
10:59to the legal team.
11:00Margarita,
11:01the last one
11:02and we thank you.
11:03How many women
11:04work like you
11:05and risk
11:06their lives
11:07for these cases?
11:08How many are you?
11:09I,
11:10in the association
11:11there are few,
11:12because few people
11:13want to collaborate
11:14with mothers
11:15to do this job.
11:16We,
11:17this association,
11:18is the only one
11:19in the world
11:20that does this job
11:21said by the
11:22journalists
11:23of the world,
11:24right?
11:25That's why
11:26I had an international
11:27award,
11:28I'm the woman
11:29of the year
11:30in Europe.
11:31More than deserved,
11:32more than deserved
11:33Margarita,
11:34because that girl
11:35is free because of you,
11:36not because of 152.
