LIVE | Grief And Anger In Rio As Families Mourn Victims Of Deadly Police Raid | Brazil
The operation’s stated objectives were capturing leaders and limiting the territorial expansion of the Red Command gang, which has increased its control over favelas in recent years.
Families of the scores of people killed in a deadly gang raid by Rio de Janeiro police have begun burying the dead, with residents left reeling by the scenes of carnage and angry at law enforcement whom they accuse of excessive force, torture and extrajudicial killings.
At least 132 people were killed during Tuesday’s operation, including four policemen, according to a tally by Rio de Janeiro’s public defenders’ office.
A day after a raid that many described as like a war, the low-income favela neighbourhood showed signs of a return of everyday activities, with a few restaurants and shops once again awaiting customers.
“I came to work because I have to, but my mental health is shattered,” said Monique Santiliano, a 40-year-old local who runs a nail salon.
