Case description

The October 27, 1996 UFO Roundup contains a short account attributed to Júlia Monteiro de Cabral, a ninety-two-year-old woman in a rural village it spells “Pilozinhas.” The imported database associates the report with Pilõezinhos, Paraíba. She reportedly saw an unusual silver, aircraft-like object descend vertically beside eucalyptus trees on Friday, October 18, at about 18:45. The database’s 18:50 time is slightly different. According to the newsletter, a group of small occupants came out, spoke in a high-pitched language she could not understand, and surrounded her modest house. She described them as small and unattractive and claimed that they took chickens. The account gives no reliable number, detailed facial anatomy, clothing description, or explanation of how she observed the departure. Those omissions prevent a precise portrait of the alleged visitors. The item appeared amid reports from several Paraíba towns and credits members of the Guarabira investigating group EPUG. Other regional sightings in the article are separate events, not additional witnesses to this house encounter. The fuller newsletter also corrects the imported description of an unnamed farmer: its named witness is an elderly woman. The plate illustrates that limited account with indistinct small figures and a partly obscured silver form, without inventing an alien species or depicting harm to animals.
