A slew of operations before and during the 39-day international soccer tournament resulted in 89 arrests and the rescue of 43 people, Inspector Gary Marcus, commanding officer of the NYPD’s Special Victims Unit, told reporters on Thursday.
Seven of those rescued across the five boroughhs are minors, Marcus said.
Investigators surveilled watch parties, monitored dark corners of the internet, and paid visits to previously convicted sex traffickers while the massive 104-game tournament took place around North America, including eight games across the Hudson River at MetLife Stadium.

Officers also targeted previously convicted sex offenders and sex traffickers ahead of the World Cup.
