Brazilian police have arrested 13 members of a religious sect on suspicion of enslavement, human trafficking and money laundering.
Sect leaders are accused of seizing the possessions of followers and making them work unpaid.
Police raided several businesses as part of an investigation into the sect, known as The Evangelical Community of Jesus, the Truth that Marks.
The church is estimated to have 6000 followers.
Police are looking for nine more people including the leader of the sect, known as "Father Cícero".
