A senior member of an Orthodox Jewish sect wanted for alleged human trafficking has been arrested by Interpol agents in Guatemala.

Other members of the Lev Tahor sect are accused of sexual abuse of children in Central America and in 2021 members of the Jewish group were convicted of trying to kidnap a 14-year-old girl who was in an arranged marriage with adult man in the group.

Interpol and Guatemalan police said they arrested Yoel Alter, a 35-year-old Israeli national. Alter is wanted on human trafficking charges in Mexico.

In December, Guatemalan police took into custody 160 kids after it raided a Lev Tahor farm, alleging sexual and other abuse.

US renegade fundamentalist Mormons have also used Mexico in the same way these Orthodox Jewish sect people have chosen, living in ways which would have attracted the law in their earlier addresses.

It's great when they occassionally get stopped in their attempts to dominate and control other human beings, using "religion" as their trap.

Thank you to Sugeo.
