Brazilian authorities build temporary wall to quell prison clashes
The rusty red containers were hauled into the Alcacuz prison yard in **rtheastern Brazil, with officials aiming to finish the temporary wall, stacking one container atop a**ther, by sundown on Sunday. It is a desperate move for security officials struggling to keep control of Alcacuz, where the latest in a string of brutal prison massacres in Brazil’s **rth and **rtheast took place Jan 14. Members of the nation’s most powerful gang attacked rivals with machetes and knives, beheading and quartering many of the 26 killed. The outbreak of violence was the latest in Brazil’s beleaguered penitentiary system, where about 140 people have died in clashes since Jan. 1.The overcrowded prisons are **w the battleground in a quickly escalating war between the nation’s two biggest drug gangs, the Sao Paulo-based First Capital Command (PCC) and the Red Command based in Rio de Janeiro. For two decades, the two factions have maintained a working relationship, ensuring a steady flow of ***** and arms over Brazil’s porous border. But about six months ago, the PCC began trying to muscle the Red Command out of key drug routes. The PCC has aggressively moved into new areas in the **rth and **rtheast of Brazil, where the deadly prison riots have taken place in recent weeks. In response, the Red Command allied itself with local gangs, enlisting them to take on the PCC. The killings began on Jan 1, when the powerful **rth Family gang, an ally of the Red Command, killed 56 inmates at a prison in Amazonas state, mostly PCC members. The **rth Family controls a lucrative cocaine route along the Solimoes, a branch of the Amazon that flows from Colombia and Peru, the world’s top two cocaine-producing nations. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Brazilian authorities build temporary wall to quell prison clashes || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
