Brasilia is so remote and on a plateau. It’s about 15 hours inland by road from the Atlantic coast.
The movements by bus and air from major cities like Rio and São Paulo would have been noticed, at a time when much of Brazil’s population was engaged with the passing of Pelé.
Apparently, the local provincial cops charged with protecting the national buildings did nothing.
The National Guard had to be brought in.

Because of its urban design, it’s not easy to get around in Brasilia - basically a central spine connection .

India has invested heavily in the education of girls to contain the birth rate, without disrupting the male/female balance. Gender testing in pregnancy is banned.
So many women in public life in India.
Hard to spot a female at China’s last big political show.

I thought both countries banned gender testing of pregnancies, and both did it because the practice was rampant (and still continues). Am I incorrect on that?

The one child policy in China led to a serious imbalance. It was common knowledge that females were being aborted ( a proliferation of little Emperors) and led to questioning of other countries supplying China.
IIRC Harradine, the Independent Senator whose vote was critical, secured an Australian ban on subsidies on relevant products through our aid program.
IDK about China, but gender testing has been banned for some time in India ( which did not apply the one child policy, but which briefly had sterilisation programs).
Indian government financing of girls education assisted in reducing femicide in more rural regions.
