I've found a not well know case from Brazil that maybe worth sharing. What makes this case different is that Interpool and Brazilian Police were
invovled due to the ammount of reports made by citzents of the Islland of Middle, in Brazil ( iLha do Meio), which is located in the Amazon Region of
the State of Para.
The Island of Meio is located 200km from the city of Augusto Correia, due to terrain and other factors, travel by boat usually took around 5 hours to
the island and it was usually done by a man named João Olaya and other fishermen, who was one of the witness of this case, as he would have been
hgired to take her to the island.

This case starts in 1975, when a woman arrived at the closest proximity city of the island, which was Augusto Correia, and began talking to locals
about buying plot of lands on the island. The woman introduced herself as Elisabeth Queminet Berger and told came from Switerzland. Beth was white,
blonde, with almond-shaped blue eyes. Unlike Scandinavian women, she was very short (4'4). She claimed she was divorced and worked as a fashion
designer. Usually, when walking in the city she would wear long dresses, with long sleeves, with closed cuffs up to the hands.
She would have eventually be led by locals to the local prefecture in order to purchase the plots of land.
Upon revision, in her English passport (nº 872152-A) and other identity documents it was cconfirmed said that Elisabeth Queminet Berger. The passport
said she was been born in Munsingen on August 18, 1947, was naturalized English and domiciled in Paris.
Eventually, she would manage to hire João Olaya to take her by boat to the Island of Meio, and would ask locals to purchase their lands. Most locals
were indigenous, and lived from fishing and had no intentions of selling their lands to the foreign woman. She would later come back, with an
irrefuseable offer in cash (quantity not specified), which the locals then accepted.
Already in possession of her property on the island, Elisabeth gathered together the few residents and said she was interested in buying other
properties immediately. There was reluctance on the part of some, as one of the requirements was that, when the deal was closed, they leaft the
locations of their former homes as soon as possible.
The documents related to purchases, were registered withing the Notary of the 1st Office of the city of Bragança and included hereditary rights. Even
after making the acquisition of vast lands on Ilha do Meio, Elisabeth did not reside or visit the island for quite some time, she would only visit the
place, usually staying months out of town/island.
Regardless of what she was doing there, her actions and the start of strange lights over the island would soon spark rumors she was an
extraterrestrial. For starters: Fishermen would report she would have been seen taking large groups of white, blonded hair people in the island
(usually ranging from 40-50 people) and she would every month purchase 400kg (881 pounds) worth of fish from local fisherman, and nothing else.

Reports said that the lights were like "small moons" that descended over the island. By the time of the UFo sightings, Beth would also reportedly use
to go out in the middle of the night to roaming the fields. She would have been warned several times to avoid those walks, as snakes and other wild
animals were common in the these parts, but she always ignored the warnings.
Some boatman with access to the island who had the courage to follow her in her "nightly walks" would report terrified that she would always walk
around naked and walk on water(like jesus). João Olaya would say that the money she paid him to take her to the island was too good despite the
rumors surrounding her.
The rumors surrounding her would eventually maker locals to begin reporting her to the police. The local police would have then call her to testify,
but since she didn't had any charges upon her, she would be cleared. Whomever, this did not stop the increase in sightings of UFOs inIsland's sky,
which would always happen when Beth was in the island (and would cease when Beth was overseas).
She would then be arrested a second time due to the ammount of reports surrounding her, she would have been taken for three days to the city of
Bragança to awnser police questions, but she was cleared of charges and released.
On a third time, she would be again be arrested, but this time, by Federal Police( Brazil FBI equivalent) and taken to Brasilia to clear up questions
regarding her activicties on the Island. After 4 days police determined Beth was doing nothing illegal and released her, it seems that Beth just
"living in the island".
Eventually, the unusual high purchase of fish, and reports by locals raised suspicions in the army that the woman was actually covering up a band of
guerrillas. The information reached military captain Uyrangê Hollanda, who at the same time served in the FAB (Brazil Airforce) and would led another
military UFO investigation in the region (the so-called Operation Prato). Upon learning of the fact, Hollanda initially suspected that Elisabeth might
have been involved in guerrilla movement or arms smuggling, which were common in brazil at this time due the country's military dictatorship.
Then, with the support of local volunteers, he would have moved some soldiers to Ilha do Meio to carry out investigations and seek more information
about the real activities of that woman.
The group managed to find Beth's hut on the island, abandoned, rather large in size for a single woman, and in a precarious state, covered in dust:
Beth house on the island only had two chairs and a bed, whomever, since sher wasnt in town, or in the island (she said prior to this event that she
had to go back to Europe to atend a relative's funeral and receive an heritage), they had to abandon pursuit.
When Beth came back to town to access the island again in 1976, she would then be stoped by local Police for a forth time and taken by the Police for
questioning, this time, to the city of Belêm, Pará. Whomever, in a certain moment during the roadtrip, Beth asked the cops to use the bathrom, they
stoped at a gasoline stop and she would use a bathroom. The bathroom only had 1 small head sized window, two toilets and only door to exit, so she
couldn't run away. Whomever, Beth would then take too long and the two policemen decided to break in to see what was happening, upon entering the
bathroom, Beth had unexplicably vanished. This would have been the last time was ever seen on the island and city and the case would have been taken
to Interpool.
According to the Ufologist Moacyr de Mendonça de Uchôa, Beth would have been spotted in Los Angeles 1985/1986 Earthquakes working as nurse, and
again in South Korea, but Interpool would have been unable to track her down. About twenty years later, police would find out the passport she used
was fake, and that the name of Elisabeth Queminet Berger, was of a Swiss woman who died in 1937.
Nowdays locals believe Beth was either an extraterrestrial or time traveler, minding her own bussiness, but the annoyance of the locals and police
made her leave the island for good.
