On the afternoon of New Year's Day, a riot broke out in the Anisio Jobim Penitentiary in Manaus, Brazil. Beheaded bodies began to be thrown over the boundary wall, and by the time police restored control at 7 the following morning, 56 lay butchered.
Last October, in the Boa Vista prison in the next-door northern state of Roraima, a video shot on a mobile phone captured inmates playing football with a dead man's head. By the end of January, 26 more killings occurred at Alcacuz Prison in Natal with many of the victims decapitated while one man was barbecued over a courtyard fire having been impaled on a stick.
