On July 14, 2013, Amarildo Dias Souza (43 years)
00:00:48 – 00:00:54
was tortured till death by military police of the
Rocinha favela in Rio de Janeiro
00:00:58 00:01:02
The story has become a symbol of the fight of the society

I have been personally threatened by
him. I met the secretary and she also had a threat on her life.
0:00:04:11;15 0:00:04:12;08
Me and my family.
0:00:04:12;24 0:00:04:17;03
We now have an emergency situation. The
case of your husband.
0:00:04:17;27 0:00:04:20;11
And the demonstration you are staging
here.
0:00:04:20;11 0:00:04:21;25
I am not negotiating anything with the
major.
0:00:04:22;06
0:00:04:27;25
Who will tell what to negotiate, what
to do, what your conditions are
0:00:04:28;05 0:00:04:32;05
Imagine this, if you sat at a table
with the Government.
0:00:04:32;24 0:00:04:34;11
What is it that you demand?
0:00:09.04.00
- 0:00:09:10.00
There is much we can remember and that
we keep... It's hard to forget, isn't it? The good things that happened.
0:00:09.11;00 0:00:09:12.00
Of the bad things.
0:00:09:13.00 0:00:09:21.00
But even then the most recent memories,
I think I was about 4. That I can remember a few things.
0:00:09:22.99 0:00:09:29.00
Our house had wattle and daub walls. It
was mud, with a bamboo and wooden frame.
0:00:09:30.00 0:00:09.36.00
Every storm we had and the first thing
I felt, already aged 5 or 6, was a strong tummy ache.
0:00:09.39.00
0:00:09.42.00
When the first thunder sounded, and the
heavy rain.
0:00:10:15;00 0:00:10:18.00
Because I knew then that a tragedy
could happen.
0:00:10:27.00
0:00:10:30.00
And then my father managed to buy a
place.
0:00:10:31.00 0:00:10.35.00
Right next to my granny's place.
Because there is a strong family thing there, every one
00:10.36.00 00:10.41.00
builds close by, all together, Everybody
helping each other.
0:00:10.46.00 0:00:10.49.00
Neighbours, relatives, everyone
together.

In combination one day and every one
carrying the building materials.
0:00:10.55.00 0:00:10.56.00
Carrying sand, stone, cement
0:00:10.57.00 0:00:11:01.00
All the floods we had and that nowadays
people have to salvage their things from their homes
0:00:11:02.00 0:00:11:03.00
To avoid losing them because of the
rain.
0:00:11:04.00 0:00:11:07.00
In our time we had to hold to the house
or we'd lose it at every downpour.
00:11:08 00:11:11
So this will to fight collectively to
avoid losing
00:11:12. 00:11:15.
led us to really see what a community
is.
0:00:11:15.00 0:00:11:17
Those who were kids in the slum in the
1980s
00:11:17 00:11:22
who was a teenager then learned the
meaning of the word community.
00:11:27
0:00:11:31.00
And the slum it is really a replacement
for the tenements in houses
0:00:11:32 0:00:11.35
That there was a hard campaign at the
end of the 19th century
0:00:11.36 0:00:11.40
Related to the tenement houses that
were precarious but popular dwellings
0:00:11:46 0:00:11.47
Before they made this tunnel here
0:00:11:48 0:00:11.51.00
Before the huge urban growth in the
south side
0:00:11.52 0:00:11.54
The city of Rio de Janeiro ended in
Leblon
0:00:11.55 0:00:11.58
Rocinha was off the city plan.
00:11.58 00:11.59
That's why we're here.
00:12.00 00:12.03
We were disregarded by the public power
in that place no one goes to.
00:12.04 00:12.05
The problem is that the city continued
on
00:12.06 00.12.07
The advancing went on.
00:12.08 00:12.13
And led Rocinha to be right between the
most expensive square metre in Brazil that is São Conrado and Leblon.
00:12.14
0:00:12.19
There is something very good for us who
live in Rocinha and that is the job market
0:00:12.20 0:00:12.23
Once you get out of the tunnel and you
have the whole of the south side in front of you.
00:12.24 00:12.27
To mind parked cars, carry bags for the
wealth ladies, to work as doormen, waiters
0:00:12.28 0:00:12.32
The chef, the maid, the cleaner, the
nanny
00:12.33 0:00:12.38
This also helped the community to grow
as I had already heard
00:12.39 00:12.42
my granny used to say that her employer
wanted to help her
00:12.43 00:12.45
'Tell me what you need to redecorate
your place'
00:12.46 00:12.48
'Tell what you need to build, another floor'
00:12.49 00:12.57
So I heard this a lot when I was a
teenager, the employer helping the employee
00.12.59 00.13.02
The slum cannot be seen as a problem.
The slum was a solution.
0:00:13.03 0:00:13.05
Solution from a non-housing plan
00:13.06
00:13.07
For this state that received everyone
00:13.08 00:13.12
to build the Rio-Niteroi bridge, to
construct the Avenida Brasil, Aterro do Flamengo
00:13.13 00:13.14
And there was no plan.
00:13.15 00:13.18
A plan like 'these people will have
kids, and where are they going to study?'
00:13.19 00:13.21
Where will everyone be able to live?”
0:00:13.22 0:00:13.23
This plan was not made.
00:13.23
00:13.28
It was just accepted. Well, leave them
up there in the shacks that they will some time get tired of so much toiling
they will go back to the Northeast.
00:13.29 00:13.30
But this never happened.
0:00:13.31 0:00:13.34
At age 12 I was working in the open
market. Carrying fruit and vegetables in bags for the ladies.
0:00:13.35 0:00:13.42
Selling garlic, lemons. Which was how
we managed to help my mother.
0:00:13:44 0:00:13.45
And I grew up being beaten by the
police.

Leader for Rocinha
0:00:13.46
0:00:13.49
I grew up getting beaten by them
00:13.51 00:13.59
and I do not see all this project that
is being implemented in the state as a solution to the problems, no I
don't.
0:00:14.00 0:00:14.03
We also have, historically, and that is
also a disaster
00:14.04 00:14.10
an entire punishing system that works
to try and control these populations.
0:00:14.11 0:00:14.19
As if the problem of criminality in Rio
de Janeiro, say from the 1930s, 40s, 50s to these days
0:00:14.20 0:00:14.25
were solely the responsibility of the
slum populations. And this is not true.
0:00:14.29 0:00:14.36
The pacifying police unit was opened in
the Rocinha community in Rio. One hundred security cameras.
00:14.37 00:14.40
More security today for the nearly 100
thousand dwellers of Rocinha...
0:00:14.41 00:14.43
The arrival of the pacifying forces
mobilised 3,000 men...
00:14.44 00:14.49
The UPP - Pacifying Police Unit -
implementation, hope of better days...
0:00:14.50 0:00:14.52
The Security Secretary talks about
making history...
00:14.53 00:14.54
This is the concession from the
State...
0:00:14.55 00:14.58
Tens of escape routes in a thick
Atlantic forest area.
0:00:14.59 00:15.03
The air space in Rocinha, Rio de
Janeiro, will be closed on Sunday for the Police to occupy a new...
0:00:15.04 0:00:15.05
One place less for the police to commit
murders...
0:00:15.06 0:00:15.08
And the PM commander so summons:
00:15.09 00.15.11
Shall we move to success ?!
00:15.12 00:15.16
This monitoring room linked to Police
computers
00:15.17 00:17:18;22
to facilitate the identification of
suspects, the camera circuit will also be...
00:15.21 00:15.25
And 70,000 dwellers were free from the
grip of the drug dealers
00:15.26 00:15.29
The camera circuit will also be used to
watch the community.
0:00:15.30 0:00:15.32
Since Rocinha was occupied by the
Police
00:15.33
0:00:15:38
At least 5 people were shot in some 12
hours of intense confrontation
0:00:15:39 0:00:15.40
I am talking about the pacified
Rocinha.
00:15.41
0:00:15.47
Fear is the rule and we do not know who
the next victim will be, how many more people will be assassinated, killed.
00:15.48 0:00:15.54
To avoid the confrontations that have
been going on here. To avoid new Amarildo cases.
0:00:15.55 0:00:16.02
Its bullets fired, by drug dealers and
police, and the 99% are in the cross fire.

This won't solve the trafficking issue
here, not in Alemão, or in Manguinhos, and in none of the pacified communities.

I was surprised when one of the
witnesses was speaking there, she heard the policemen who were behind my place
saying this when they were about to leave:
0:00:16.24 0:00:16.28
'Leave it out. Leave it out, leave it
out, he will go missing just like Amarildo.'
0:00:16.29 0:00:16.38
And I was really shaken. It is panic,
panic. My daughter cries all the time when I go out.
0:00:16.39 0:00:16.44
My wife is worried, she's so much
afraid, thinking they will take it on me,
00:16.45 :00:16.48
they will try to do something against
my life. Make an attempt on my life.
0:00:16.49 00:16.59
My mum says I see her waning away,
every day. Psychologically she is scared and when we get a chance to talk she
cries so much.
0:00:17.00 0:00:17.03
It is a life I do not wish to anyone.
0:00:17.04 0:00:17.08
I believe we don't want another
Amarildo case anywhere.
0:00:17.09
0:00:17.18
This doesn't have to happen in no slum.
I feel we, as dwellers, could complain, record, charge.
0:00:17.21 00:17:23
Right. Thank you, Claudia.
0:00:17:24 0:00:17:25
Bye. Bye.
00:17:30 00:17.30
Who was it, Duda?
0:00:17.31
00:17.32
Someone from Jornal do Brasil.
00:17.33 00:17.37
Called to hear me on what happened on
Friday.
00:17.39 00:17.45
Said he followed up the news and wanted
me to clarify all the details, facts.
00:17.46 00:17.50
On the last Police stoppages made by
them.
00:17.52 00:18.03
It is there... Another one, right? just
this week I think all the media came round, asked me on what is going on.
0:00:18.04 0:00:18.06
We'll see, right? We'll see.
00:18.20 00:18.24
The child saw the police as a
security. You can't say that today.
00:18.25 00:18.31
The child is afraid. Afraid of leaving
home, walking on the alleys, fear.

00:18.32 00:18.37
Why? Because there is violence, there
is no respect with us dwellers in the slum.
0:00:18.38
0:00:18.41
When they slapped me on the face, I
fell to the ground, all dizzy.

Yuri – Duda’s brother
00.18.42
00:18.47
My chest was swollen, my face was cut.
The lit a lighter next to me.
00:18.49 00:18.52
Pepper spray? They arrived at my place
and placed it on the small bathroom window.
00:18.53
0:00:18.58
There was no ventilation, only two very
small windows, one in the kitchen and another in the bathroom.
00:18.59 00:19.02
They came with a pepper spray and
stuff, and used through the window and we had to leave.
00:19.03 00:19.08
When we left we ran into them. They
asked: Why are you running? Where are you going? And they laughed at us.
00:19.10
00:19.18
There were weekends in which I'd take
my wife out to chill out. And they said: You are going nowhere. Locked me to my
front door. I could not leave.
00:19.19
00:19.22
It was as if I had been arrested. I
could not leave the place.
0:00:19.23 0:00:19.32
Because if I left and they found me in
the street it was certain they would beat me up or take me into a corner to
torture me.
00:19.33
0:00:19.35
Because last time they tried to place a
bag on my head.
0:00:19.36 00:19.40
And then I thought that it was...
Choking me... I thought they were going to kill me.
0:00:19.42 00:19.45
I went to the 2nd street, in my area. I
didn't want to, but I had to.
0:00:19.46 00:19.53
A girl filmed it. She said, I did not
know her then, but now I do.
00:19:49 – 00:19:53
Adriana –
Jonathan mother's, killed by police
0:00:19.54 00:20.02
She said: Adriana, I was on my balcony,
I saw it. I was taking a picture of my daughter and saw it when it happened.
0:00:20.03 0:00:20.09
He was sitting on a motorcycle with two
phones, moving songs from one to the other.
0:00:20.10 00:20.12
When this PM turned and said “Lost it”.
0:00:20.13 00:20.19
He jumped, when he said 'my papers are
here' and reached for his pocket, and the PM yelled 'lost it all right'.
0:00:20.20 00:20.23
And shot Jonathan. He fell down
00:20.24 0:00:20.32
When they took his phone they yelled:
'Fuck'. We screwed it, we got the wrong boy, but now it is too late.
0:00:20.33 0:00:20.42
When they looked up, they saw she was
there, then went in, took her phone, broke her memory card and her phone.
0:00:20.44 00:20.52
She went to the station, made a
statement, told the woman chief inspector, but nothing happened till now.
00:20.52 00:20.55
The meaning of police in the community
is fear.
0:00:20.57 00:21.06
In one of the police incursions here in
the street, the alley where I live. The major himself, the commander himself,
made a point of saying it to my face
0:00:21.07 00:21.11
In front of my family, that he would
get me. That I was not getting by unnoticed.
0:00:21.12 0:00:21.18
Then the officers who were there with
him, which was that tactical group he created, started to threaten me, too.
0:00:21.20 0:00:21.23
And some of the police officers already
knew me. They passed on and on in front of my snack bar
0:00:21.24
0:00:21.30
And even having that relationship, the
treatment from seeing I am a worker, and I know I was working. The insisted in
continuing with the threats.
0:00:21.31 00:21.39
The policeman broke into my home,
pointed an assault rifle to my 15-year-old daughter. Forced her to leave the house.
0:00:21.40 0:00:21.45
Yelling, asking if there were any more
people in the house. My wife was coming out of the bathroom and was threatened,
too.
0:00:21.46 00:21.52
They came into their homes, placed a
gun to his face. And the other one said: Kill him. Kill him now!
00:21.53 00:21.59
And my grandson said: Mum, granny, they
are going to kill the boy... Duda, right? We call him Duda.
0:00:22.00
0:00:22.03
They are going to kill him. And then I
said: No, Christian, slow down. They are not going to do it. And then he said: They
are, granny.
0:00:22.04
0:00:22.09
I asked if that policeman, who broke
into my place, if he had a search warrant.
00:22.10 00:22.20
And they started to scorn. They started
to say I was an intellectual, that I knew so many things. This because I had
mentioned my rights.
0:00:22.21
0:00:22.28
And I even asked the policeman that if
he was there as a representative of the law, shouldn't he be making sure my
rights were respected.
00:22.29 0:00:22.40
When this team started to actually ask
me about weapons, ask me about an assault rifle. Saying I had to hand the
assault rifles over. That they already had this information and that I was the
person responsible.
0:00:22.41
00:22.48
That I stashed the rifles of the drug
dealers, and that they knew I was involved with the drug trafficking. It was
there that I saw my life was at risk.
00:22.49
0:00:22.55
And as I had already witnessed several
torture sessions, many police actions involving bribery, filthy stuff.
00:22.56 00:23.04
I started to see that I could become a
victim at any moment. Or become a victim of torture. Or they making me
disappear.
00:23.05 00:23.11
So I had no doubt. I had to denounce or
wait for the worse to happen to me.
00:23.39 00:23.47
Because on the 29th a bullet was fired
into my place, through the window, fired by a policeman, through my daughter's
bedroom.
00:23.48 00:23.56
I placed myself in the line of fire and
asked the police to stop that as the alleys are very narrow where we live.
00:23.57 00:24.01
And the area is full of holes. The
police are firing almost without looking.
00:24.02 00:24.10
Because these policemen started to yell
from the end of the alley, calling me out. Aiming their rifles at me. Telling
me to walk towards them.
0:00:24.11 0:00:24.19
I refused to go. Told them I was in my
home and that if they could come to a place well lit, that would not be a
problem, but I would not go where it was dark.
0:00:24.20 0:00:24.33
The Human Rights Commission, we are in
the Legislative Branch, helping the public. Helping them with legal advice,
social advice and taking on the charges they have.

0:00:24.34 0:00:24.38
And they did not even search me. Just
told me to place my hands against the wall and then just beat me.
0:00:24.39 0:00:24.43
The policemen who took me there were
the same that walked past me and searched me.
0:00:24.45
0:00:24.56
They told him: Tel that man there, the
big white one, that if we catch him alone in the alley, we will hurt him.
Because he is very cheeky, very full of himself.
0:00:24.57 0:00:25.03
I am quite proud, we talk a lot about
taking individual cases and turning them into collective actions.
0:00:25.04
0:00:25.07
To organise in such a way that the
individual does not feel alone.
0:00:25.11 0:00:25.18
Can you call me then to tell me how it
went there with Marcio?
Thank you everyone.
00:25.50 00:25.53
What's up, Boi? Take the cement here.
0:00:28.14 0:00:28.19
I was coming from the market. I went
shopping for things we needed at home.
0:00:28.20 0:00:28.29
And I passed by the policemen who
stopped Amarildo. Some of them with ninja hats, that tactical group.
00:28.30 00:28.39
And right there I felt worried as a
police operation was going on in that weekend, with UPP police and Civil Police
too.
00:28:42 00:28:49
The
ARMED PEACE operation was carried out on June 12 and 13, 2013 by the Civil and
Military Police forces (TC CARTELA)
00:28.49
0:00:28.52
It had been 2 days since the start of
the 'Armed Peace' operation.
0:00:28.53 0:00:28.58
Which did not produce the expected
result. Not exactly a successful operation.
00:28.59 00:29.12
This lack of satisfaction lead the
major to order them to bring Amarildo in to have him talk about the weapons and
the drugs.

A neighbour of mine came quickly and
said: Beth, the police have arrested and taken Amarildo. I asked: Why? He just
came back from fishing?
0:00:29.32 0:00:29:35
She replied: Go, go after them. I was
wearing a pair of shorts, put a jacket on and went after them.
0:00:29.36
0:00:29.42
When I got there, and I was running, from my place down to
the UPP it is just a few metres. I no longer saw my husband, they really rushed
my husband away from there.
0:00:29.43
0:00:29.50
I ran, got there and asked the
policemen: Where is my husband? They said: Amarildo is here but you can go home
because I have some questions to ask him.
0:00:29.51
0:00:29.52
And we will release him You can leave
now.
0:00:29.53
0:00:29.59
I said: I will not leave and I will
only leave when you release my husband. And I remained there, waiting for my
husband to come out from there. And I never saw my husband again.
0:00:30.00
0:00:30.08
As I was waiting there I saw a VW Gol stop in front of the UPP and the
policemen took my husband from there, in handcuffs.
0:00:30.09 0:00:30.15
And then I said: Where are you taking
my husband? He said: We are going to the red gate but he has no quarrel with
the Justice and we will let him go.
0:00:30.16 0:00:30.22
Before my husband went into the car, he
looked up and told me: Beth, my document is with this policeman. Who was the
so-called monkey face.
0:00:30.23 0:00:30.30
And there was a policeman standing next
to the car who looked at my husband, sternly, and said: We are going to have a
conversation at the red gate.
0:00:30.31
0:00:30:38
As he said so, the policeman came to me
and my 13-year-old daughter, and said the major had phoned them and told them
no one was allowed to go up.
0:00:30:39
0:00:30:45
Because there were 20 people being held
up for questioning and they could not talk to anyone's family.
0:00:34:13
0:00:34.23
When it was later, in the evening, Beth
came to me, in despair, crying: Saying that the policemen had taken Amarildo.
0:00:34.24 0:00:34.26
And he had not come back yet.
0:00:34:28
0:00:34.37
And I, even to calm her down, told her:
No, Beth, calm down that they took Amarildo and they will have to let go of
him. Because Amarildo is no criminal.
0:00:34:38
0:00:34.48
After that I went looking. I said:
People, Amarildo has gone missing. Then I went to the station, to the morgue, I
went to every place in Rio, looked for him in his home, his relatives, nothing,
nothing at all.
0:00:34.49
0:00:34.56
The other day we went back to the red
gate. Amarildo has not come home yet! 'No, we let him go, he is in someone's
place, some relative's.”
0:00:34.57 0:00:35.05
I said: I have lived with my husband
for 30 years. I know the ways he takes, it is from home to work, he was not
fond of music groups, was not fond of dances.
0:00:35.06
0:00:35.12
My husband's only vice was fishing and
bringing fish home. And my husband is missing. He would not go to a relative's
place, not even when we fought .
00:35.13 00:35:15
If we fought we would come back soon
after and stayed home.
0:00:35:16 0:00:35.21
But when she said he was not at the
station, was in no hospital, then she went back to the UPP with her family.
0:00:35.22 0:00:35.29
And the major said he had let him go as
he saw he had no problems and that he had already gone home.
0:00:35.30
0:00:35.39
It was then that I started to worry and
be certain that something really serious had happened to him.
0:00:35.40 0:00:35.42
And then I said, wait a minute, I will
start to talk.
0:00:35.43 0:00:35.47
Rio is easily frightened with a
demonstration in front of the Rocinha slum, the largest in Latin America.
00:35:46 00:35:49

Globo TV Report (source: Youtube)
0:00:35.48
0:00:35.52
The main route between the south and
west sides is blocked by football and drumming.
0:00:35.53
0:00:36.00
That picture was well printed in my
mind, in my life, as an uncle of mine was in that demonstration.
0:00:36.01 0:00:36.07
But soon the drumming changes into a
huge confusion. The traffic comes to a halt and the police start to act.
0:00:36.09 0:00:36.17
And I wanted that the community could
somehow come together again, and I missed that, of us together again.
0:00:36:18
0:00:36.21
People united, to complain or demand
0:00:36.24 0:00:36.27
To try and rescue that union in the
community of Rocinha.
0:00:36.28
0:00:36.33
As Amarildo was one of ours. And we decided that could not go
unpunished.
0:00:36.35
0:00:36.46
Hundreds of Rocinha dwellers
demonstrated on Thursday evening, demanding explanations on the disappearance
of assistant mason Amarildo de Souza, missing since the 14th of July.
00:36:43
– 00:36:47
Agence
France Presse 2013 Report (source:

0:00:36.47
0:00:36.52
The presence of major Edson at the
demonstration was a request from the dwellers.
0:00:36.53
0:00:36.58
They wanted him to explain what had
happened to Amarildo. As he was the head of the UPP.
0:00:36.59 0:00:37.04
And who had taken Amarildo from his
home were the policemen, UPP policemen.
0:00:37.05 0:00:37.10
I told him we would only clear the
roads with the presence of the chairman of the Human Rights Commission.
0:00:37.11
0:00:37.13
The crowd blocked the Lagoa-Barra
motorway for some 2 hours
0:00:37.14
0:00:37.19
After a few minutes the major notified
me that someone from the Human Rights would come.
0:00:37.23 0:00:37.26
The people were blocking the road at
the exit of the tunnel
0:00:37.27 0:00:37.28
Which in this region means the place
where the road sign is.
0:00:37.29 0:00:37.34
Well, if I am not mistaken, the major
is a militia man.
0:00:37.35 0:00:37.42
The first contact with the
demonstrators, with the family, with Duda, was a little complicated due to the
lack of information, wasn't it?
0:00:37.43 0:00:37.53
People mix Government with eh State and
in that case I was representing a team from a parliament commission that is
part of the State but that is not Government.
0:00:37.54 0:00:37.59
Rather the opposite, the role of this
parliament commission is to inspect and to demand from the Government.

0:00:38.00
0:00:38.01
- Calm down, calm down
0:00:38.02
0:00:38.03
- Just the family. Just the family.
0:00:38.07
0:00:38.10
Beth! Beth! It is just Beth.
0:00:38.12 0:00:38.18
Look, my name is Guilherme. I am not in
the Government, I am not. I have no Government authority.
0:00:38.18
0:00:38.19
I know.
0:00:38.20 0:00:38.22
I am with the Human Rights Commission.
0:00:38.23 0:00:38.26
At first people treated much like
Government.
0:00:38.27 0:00:38.34
They made demands, and that is when Duda came
up and said 'I've been there, I've made the charge, I had already spoken about
these practices'.
0:00:38.35
0:00:38.40
Guilherme, this is not the first case. Others
have happened since the occupation.
0:00:38.41 0:00:38.45
The family that lives here in the Dirty
Laundry is afraid of charging; her husband was murdered, too.
0:00:38.46 0:00:38.52
Pointed a gun and planted drugs, said
the man was a drug dealer. This is common practice. It happens all the time.
0:00:38.52 0:00:38.53
They do this with anyone.
0:00:38.54
0:00:38.56
Two youngsters were kidnapped in their
home; they forged a possession and arrested them.
0:00:38.57 0:00:39.07
There are people imprisoned who are not
drug dealers. What we want is just that, the major should come and take a look
at it; he militarised the community.
0:00:39.08 0:00:39.13
He does only what he wants in there.
His men know how far they can go. They have no limits.
0:00:39.14 0:00:39.15
The Police will kill on his orders.
0:00:39.15 0:00:39.21
So we should not move from a community
ruled by the drug dealers to a community occupied by the Police.
0:00:39.22
0:00:39.26
Because what they are doing here is the
work of militia. Thrashing the lives of workers.
0:00:39.26
0:00:39.26
Kidnapping the person in his home...
0:00:39.27 0:00:39.34
Arresting the innocent. We keep on
waiting for two things: one, if I get arrested and the other if I get killed.
0:00:39.35 0:00:39.37
Do you know why? Because I went there
to make the charge, man.
0:00:39.38
0:00:39.38
- I went there to make the charge...
0:00:39.39
0:00:39.40
But I have to make the charge after
all.
0:00:39.41
0:00:39.42
- Who goes there afterwards...
0:00:39.43 0:00:39.48
The number of other cases was amazing,
other people who came forward to speak out.
0:00:39.48
0:00:39.52
I mean, people were scared to talk,
they do not believe it can produce anything.
0:00:39.53 0:00:39.58
And they absorb their own pain. No
matter how big it is.
0:00:39.59
0:00:40.08
But that was a moment of catharsis,
when the whole hill had come down because of one man's disappearance and it was
a moment to breathe, a flash of hope when something could be done.
0:00:40.09 0:00:40.12
And I think it triggered other people
somehow, that it was necessary to speak out.
0:00:40.13 0:00:40.19
You can even kill me, but I have 20
thousand more behind me.
0:00:40.20 0:00:40.31
It was a storm of tragedies that took
place there while I tried to explain my role.
As we tried to set up a channel, open a channel to negotiate.
0:00:40.33
:00:40.36
- For as long as we get no response...
- I will talk, I will talk to the major
now
0:00:40.37
0:00:40.39
We will have the chance to sit down and
negotiate.
0:00:40.40 0:00:40.42
We want the dwellers to come along and
negotiate, too.
0:00:40.43
0:00:40:44
- I am not negotiating anything with
the major.
- Only with the major...
0:00:40.45
0:00:40.47
Please, let me finish this.
0:00:40.48
0:00:40.55
I am not negotiating anything with the
major. I'll say we can sit down, everyone together, to negotiate
0:00:40.56 0:00:41.01
Those who will say what there is to be
negotiated, what they want to do, what the conditions are. It is you.
0:00:41.02
0:00:41.03
You are the ones who live here, and not
I.
0:00:41.05 0:00:41.10
I am here to open this channel as the
partner over there said. Open the channel.
0:00:41.11 0:00:41.17
Consider this, if you sat now at a
table with the Government, what is it that you want?
0:00:41.18
0:00:41.20
Think about it, I need this answer.
0:00:41.21
0:00:41.24
And then I said: First we would like to
talk to the top officials in public security.
0:00:41.25
0:00:41.27
I wanted to talk to José Mariano
Beltrame.
0:00:41.28 0:00:41.32
That it was no use for us to talk,
let's say, with soldiers. We want to talk to their boss.
0:00:41.33 0:00:41.40
In the mean time, we opened a half a
channel, as the dialogue began.
0:00:41.41
0:00:41.50
But the imposition that if it took 10
minutes, and then another 10 minutes, we would come to an agreement until the
new official position came.
0:00.41.51
0:00:41.52
And so it came.
0:00:41.52 0:00:41.59
Tomorrow at 10´o clock Mr. Beltrame the
State Security Secretary will attend it at his Department, along with
0:00:42.00 0:00:42.10
the Civil Police chief who at the time
was Ms. Martha Rocha, the head police chief at the 15th precinct,
chief Orlando Zaccone and the general commander of the UPPs.
0:00:42.11 0:00:42.19
And in the case of major Edson who was
not mentioned, to be invited to this meeting, and he attended it.
0:00:42.20 0:00:42.33
I did not hesitate. I asked permission
to Amarildo's family. As I thought that meeting was for them to speak out, it
was more important for them to speak out, talk about the tragedy.
0:00:42.34
0:00:42.45
But I was in this moment of I had to
talk to Mr. Beltrame, to chief Martha Rocha, to Mr. Zaccone and to the UPP coordinator.
0:00:42.46 0:00:42.56
That there was a corrupt man present
there. There was a man there who always threatened my physical integrity.
0:00:42.57
0:00:43.05
And I spoke about his positioning, his
attitude, and his omission as regards the community that was evident.
0:00:43.06
0:00:43.12
And I went further. I also made the
charge as to what he did with the money of the moto-taxis.
0:00:43.13
0:00:43.18
The money that came from the company that
wanted to sponsor and make improvements to the moto-taxi business.
0:00:43.19
0:00:43.22
printing their logo on the vests of the
riders, and the money went to his pocket.
0:00:43.24
0:00:43.26
And this was mentioned there. At this
meeting.
0:00:43.28 0:00:43.31
Major Edson is the UPP representative.
0:00:43.32 0:00:43.33
He is a very powerful man.
0:00:43.34
0:00:43.35
We were very impressed with it.
0:00:43.36
0:00:43.43
Because of all the evidence and we
could not have him removed from his position, at least.
0:00:43.44
0:00:43.48
Taken from that place, as from his
position he could harass the witnesses, as everyone knows.

Orlando
Zaccone – Chief Inspector at the 15th Police Station during the
inquiry (Cartela Crédito)
0:00:43.49
0:00:43.51
He had support from State
representatives.
0:00:43.52 0:00:43.49
Yes... Rio de Janeiro representatives
with connections in Rocinha and representatives who had an interest in the
continuation of that arrangement.
0:00:44.00
0:00:44.05
I felt an enormous concern there of the
authorities, to prevent the political project from being tarnished.
0:00:44.07
0:00:44.14
I saw it as very political issue, not
one of justice.
0:00:44.15
0:00:44.22
Not of a will to truly want to
investigate those charges, those facts.
0:00:44.23
0:00:44.25
As I made the charges in April and
0:00:44.26 0:00:44.33
the Government knew of the torturing
and threats that Amarildo's family were suffering
0:00:44.34
0:00:44.35
Since April.
0:00:44.41
0:00:44.45
The period I was in charge of the
inquiry was the initial period of 15 days. It was too short.
0:00:44.46
0:00:44.52
I had a general idea of the situation,
what was being presented and of some of the question that were made.
0:00:44.53
0:00:45.00
The first question came at the time it
was found that the cameras at the main UPP building were switched off.
0:00:45.01
0:00:45.06
And therefore we had images of Amarildo
going into the police car, and going towards the main UPP building.
0:00:45.07
0:00:45.13
But we had no images of his getting off
at the UPP due to this switched off camera.
0:00:45.14
0:00:45.20
So there was only the account at that
time of the UPP commander who said he was there
0:00:45.21
0:00:45.25
At the time of Amarildo's presentation
in the container, at the UPP main building and after checking his papers.
0:00:45.26
0:00:45.30
As he took the documents and work card
to the main building
0:00:45.31
0:00:45.43
Proving he had no arrest warrant
pending when he let Amarildo go.
0:00:45.44 0:00:45.43
And that Amarildo would have left the
building. And would have seen Amarildo going down the stairs that face the UPP
container.
0:00:45.44 0:00:45.50
But that would give access to another
way. At the end of this staircase there was another camera that was not off
0:00:45.51
0:00:45.53
And he did not appear leaving by the
stairs.
00:45:57 00:46:02
After
15 days into the inquiry the case is transferred to the Homicides Police
Station (CARTELA)
0:00:46.05 0:00:46.10
The police started on a line of inquiry
that was totally wrong and prejudiced
0:00:46.11 0:00:46.16
The prejudice went: let's criminalise
the victim because then you justify these measures
0:00:46.17 0:00:46.22
Justifies the barbarism. If he is a
drug dealer he can be killed by the police the way he was.
0:00:46.23
0:00:46.30
During the 15 days was at the head of
the inquiry the only questions the press and even the people in my social
environment
0:00:46.31
0:00:46.35
Sometimes family members, friends...
thought whether Amarildo was a drug dealer or not.
0:00:46.36
0:00:46.42
No conclusion can be reached as to
whether there was a homicide or not. If there was torture or not
0:00:46.43
0:00:46.48
Due to the fact that a person, in this
case, the alleged victim is a drug dealer.
0:00:46.49
0:00:46.55
The "Extra" newspaper
published an article yesterday on the possible involvement of Amarildo and his
wife with the drug traffic.
00:46:58 00:47:41
Ruchester Marreiros – Chief
Inspector (Crédito cartela)
0:00:46.56 0:00:47.04
Amarildo, as well as many other members
of the organisation, he was responsible for storing materials, drugs, for the
traffic.
0:00:47:05 0:00:47.12
The report concluded at the beginning
of the week, Richester Marreiros came to request the temporary detention of
Elizabeth Gomes da Silva
0:00:47.13 0:00:47.17
The police chief said he only found the
involvement of the couple after the disappearance of Amarildo.
0:00:47.18 0:00:47.23
The head of the Gavea station, Orlando
Zaccone, gave an interview yesterday in Piauí
0:00:47.24 0:00:47.27
and explained why he decided not to
request the detaining of Elizabeth
0:00:47.28 0:00:47.32
As, after observing the data of chief
Richester, I feel that the elements of evidence attached to the inquiry
0:00:47.33 0:00:47.43
I could see that it was too rash to
indict and request the detaining of many people, including Beth, Elizabeth that
is
0:00:47.44
0:00:47.47
the wife, companion, of the missing
person, Amarildo. There were no elements capable.
0:00:47.48 0:00:47.52
To provide evidence that the Beth
mentioned in a statement given by a policeman was
00:47.53 0:00:47.57
the Elizabeth and there was no
recognition evidence that they were the same person
00:47.58.00 00:48.01
Orlando Zaconne also questions another conclusion of the
assistant chief.
00:48.02 00:48.05
That Amarildo's house would be an escape route for drug
dealers.
00:48.07 00:48.08
He probably does not know Amarildo's house
00:48.09.00 00:48.12
as this house is 10 square metres and has no window through
which to escape.
00:48.13 00:48.14
A house used by very poor people
00:48.15 00:48.19
who lived, yes, in an area where drug trafficking was going
on as a retail thing.
00:48.20 00:48.22
My report included this in the sense of my rejecting them.
00:48.23 00:48.28
As I cannot go along with the idea that the people who live
near
00:48.29 00:48.31
or next to the drug traffic, anywhere in this country,
00:48.32 00.48.35
are drug dealers just because they live in poor places.
00:48.40 00:48.42
Where is Amarildo?
00:48.43 00:48.45
Mr. President, on the Amarildo case.
00:48.46 00:48.52
Where it is proven that there are many, many indications
that it was the drug traffic that would have made him disappear.
00:48:48 00:48:52
Flávio Bolsonaro,
PP - Rio de Janeiro state representative (Fonte: Youtube)
00:48.53 00:48.57
If Amarildo were not missing then would have to be in
detention.
00:48.58 00:48.59
The one taking the brunt of this now
00:49.00 00:49.06
is the poor military police officer
00:49.07 00:49.12
who has nothing to do with it and that is being accused of
having made the body disappear, with Amarildo
00:49.13 00:49.17
and now they are sleeping thanks to prescription pills
00:49.18 00:49.21
with this sword dangling over their heads,
00:49.22 00:49.26
with this rotten finger of some people, pointing at their
faces,
00:49.27 00:49.28
as if they were to blame.
00:49.30 00:49.34
I deeply regret this case is being exploited
00:49.35 00:49.37
including by some state representatives.
00:49.38 00:49.41
In a time of pain they use this to gain advantages.
00:49.42 00:49.44
There is a fantasy that the drug dealer
00:49:44 –
00:49:48
João Damasceno –
Law Judge (Cartela Crédito)
00:49.45 00:49.48
is someone who has to be exterminated.
00:49:49: 00:49:51
and then the so-called drug dealer, slum dweller
00:49:52 00:49:55
is built, materializes into
00:49:56 00:49:57
This enemy number one.
00:49:57 22 00:50:02:11
All the dead are drug dealers. All the dead have a
connection with the traffic.
00:50:03:02
00:50:05:11
This is not de-constructed until today
00:50:05:22 00:50:06:22
the perspective of War.
00:50:07:01 00:50:08:22
The bellicose perspective, right,
00:50:09:02 00:50:11:22
of confrontation and more confrontation, right.
00:50:12:02 00:50:14:11
As a result of the confrontation and extermination.
00:50:14:22 00:50:16:11
You are choosing people to die
00:50:16 00:50:19
Francisco Carlos Teixeira, Phd - Political Sciences – Tempo Presente Institute (Cartela Crédito)
00:50:16:22 00:50:20:22
and after they are dead
00:50:16:22 00:50:20:22
they instantly become drug dealers. They are immediately
branded as drug dealers.
00:50:23:22 00:50:28:11
Why? Because the dealer was been stripped of his humanity.
00:50:28:22 00:50:31:11
So killing a drug dealer is no crime.
00:50:31:22 00:50:32:22
It is not a human fact.
00:50:33:01 00:50:37:22
We haven't understood that he who kills a criminal is a
criminal.
00:50:38:02 00:50:42:22
We told the police. If one follows on this path is
committing another crime.
00:50:43:11 00:50:46:11
As the trafficking has absolutely no connection with it.
00:50:46:22 00:50:48:11
they also try to fabricate evidence
00:50:48:22 00:50:51:11
with witnesses taken by those involved.
00:50:51:22 00:50:54:22
By Major Edson, who is one of the main accused parties
00:50:55:11 00:50:57:01
and by another policeman involved.
00:50:57:22 00:51:01:11
They take witnesses that tell what they saw and heard
00:51:01:22 00:51:04:22
some drug dealers saying that they would have eliminated
Amarildo.
00:51:05:02 00:51:07:22
After he left the main UPP building.
00:51:08:02 00:51:10:11
This farce was quickly dismantled.
00:51:11:02
00:51:17:22
A witness comes and sees Amarildo's body covered by a
plastic sheet, being tortured and asking for help.
00:51:18:01 00:51:21:22
This witness never wanted to give a statement and this is
completely understandable.
00:51:22:01 00:51:26:11
With a police that keeps threatening the witnesses, planting
witnesses
00:51:26:22 00:51:30:22
How are you going to make a statement to try and help the
inquiry?
00:51:31:02 00:51:37:11
It is the procedural fraud practised that enable it, right
00:51:37:22 00:51:38:22
to prove what they did.
00:51:39:01 00:51:41:22
The conversations between the alleged drug dealers
00:51:42:11 00:51:43:22
who we now know were not drug dealers
00:51:44:02
00:51:46:11
and that they were agents of the State itself
00:51:46:22 00:51:49:22
pretending to be drug dealers and assuming the disappearance
of Amarildo.
00:51:50:02 00:51:52:22
A man who identifies himself as the drug dealer named
Catatau
00:51:53:01 00:51:56:11
makes threats to a policeman infiltrated in the traffic
00:51:55 00:51:59
Rede Globo TV
Report (Cartela)
00:51:56:22 00:51:58:22
and suggests he killed Amarildo
00:51:57:01 00:52:00:00
who went by the alias Boi.
00:52:00:22
00:52:02:11
Expert examination showed that this man
00:52:02:22 00:52:05:22
was police officer Marlon staging a farce.
00:52:06:01 00:52:10:22
Then X9 (informer), I'll cut your head off, do you hear
You'll see...
00:52:11:02 00:52:12:22
My friend, my friend ... let me explain to you
00:52:13:01 00:52:17:11
We have already placed two on your tab, old boy
00:52:17:22 00:52:19:22
So what we have there is a set of procedural fraud elements
00:52:20:11 00:52:22:22
which are not very well explained, either.
00:52:23:11 00:52:26:11
The conversations had between State agents
00:52:26:22 00:52:30:11
we have in Rio de Janeiro, the ‘Guardian’, that tapes
everyone
00:52:30:22 00:52:32:22
this device should be audited
00:53:33:01
00:52:35:22
for us to find out who talked to whom in this period.
00:52:36:11 00:52:38:22
Who in the Government talked to whom?
00:52:39:01 00:52:43:11
And then we would know what problem is not in the order of
the Rocinha UPP
00:52:43:22 00:52:45:22
as regards the commander and his subordinates.
00:52:46:11 00:52:50:11
This would already show us the MO of the State in these
occurrences.
00:52:48 00:52:52
Rede Globo TV
Report (Cartela)
00:52:50:22 00:52:53:11
The State also cared to preserve the person of Major Edson.
00:52:53:22 00:52:56:22
So much that we was never dismissed.
00:52:57:02
00:52:59:02
He was sent ... he went on holidays.
00:52:59:22
00:53:06:11
That's when we conclude that days before he was formally
charged with the death of Amarildo
00:53:06:22
00:53:08:22
he had gone on holidays. He was not removed from his post.
00:53:09:01 00:53:14:11
If we look at it, from the disappearance of Amarildo on the
14th of July
00:53:15:01 00:53:16:22
until the two following months.
00:53:17:01 00:53:22:11
The entire government had the version, I mean, not official.
00:53:23:11
00:53:27:22
The media insisted on it until we could no longer be denied.
00:53:28:22
00:53:33:22
The Judiciary branch, the Prosecutor's Office carried on,
right
00:53:35:22 00:53:40:22
without going into the question and it almost came to the
point that the fantasy version
00:53:41:02 00:53:45:11
that incriminated the victim, Amarildo, prevailed.
00:56:10:00 00:56:17:00
The Rio de Janeiro Police closed the inquiry on the
disappearance of assistant mason Amarildo de Souza.
00:53:45:22 00:53:48:22
One gets to the conclusion, even if a partial one
00:53:49:02 00:53:55:22
that some of the police officers were responsible for the
death of Amarildo.
00:53:56:02 00:53:57:02
Torture and death of Amarildo.
00:53:57:22 00:53:58:22
That's what happened.
00:53:59:02 00:54:01:22
It was the barbaric action that took place there.
00:54:17:01 00:54:18:00
I am a worker.
00:54:18:11 00:54:20:11
Any vagrant will say he is a worker.
00:54:20:22 00:54:25:11
Every bastard vagrant I took down said he was a worker.
00:54:25:22 00:54:26:22
Is he a worker in this shitty place?
00:54:27:02 00:54:28:11
What sort of worker, son?
00:54:29:02 00:54:30:11
Only if it is in drug trafficking.
00:54:31:22 00:54:32:22
Pay attention.
00:54:34:11 00:54:38:22
You’re fucked already. Do you want your wife to be fucked too?
00:54:39:02
00:54:41:11
Your child to be fucked too? Because that is what I am going to do, Boi.
00:54:41:22 00:54:44:11
This ‘I am a worker’ talk is rubbish, I am a worker and I
know nothing. Fuck off.
00:54:46:22 00:54:47:22
My wife, my wife is honest.
00:54:48:02 00:54:49:11
Boi. You have been snitched on, sunshine.
00:54:49:22
00:54:51:11
It is nothing like that. Nothing like that.
00:54:51:22 00:54:53:11
You know the dirty things that happen there.
00:54:53:22 00:54:54:02
No, it is only honest people in my place.
00:54:54:11 00:54:56:22
My children, my wife, we have nothing to do with it.
00:54:57:02 00:55:01:22
All friends with the criminals.
All friends with the criminals in this shitty place.
00:55:01:02 00:55:01:22
Do you want me to take your son in?
00:55:02:01 00:55:02:22
You know me.
00:55:03:02 00:55:05:22
I am going to forge it and bust your son.
00:55:06:01 00:55:08:22
I am taking your son in.I will bring him in and beat the
crap out of him as I am doing with you.
00:55:09:01 00:55:10:22
For the love of God, you know me. Is this what you want?
00:55:12:22 00:55:16:11
Give them to me, them mother fucking guns. There are no
guns. There are no guns.
00:55:16:22 00:55:18:11
You're stashing them guns for the men, son.
00:55:18:22 00:55:21:22
Who lives in that house cannot work for any criminal act. Only honest stuff.
00:55:22:02 00:55:23:02
But you are stupid, my son. You are stupid.
00:55:23:22 00:55:25:22
You're stashing them guns for the men because of the powder
for your old lady.
00:55:26:02 00:55:28:02
My wife is decent. My wife is a mother of a family.
00:55:29:02 00:
Hmm. You mean your wife is a family mother?
00:55:31:02 00:55:33:22
Family mother? (laughter)
00:55:34:02 00:55:36:22
Medeiros. A whore. A real whore.
00:55:37:11 00:55:40:02
Sniffer, she is a real slut. Keeps putting her big nose on the powder.
00:55:40:22 00:55:42:11
Whore my ass. Do not talk about my family.
00:55:44:01 00:55:44:22
And keep your voice down in this shitty place.
00:58:52:00 00:58:53:00
Do not talk about my family.
And keep your voice down in this shitty place.
00:55:44:01 00:55:44:22
And keep your voice down in this shitty place.
00:55:45 00:55:45:22
Do not talk about my family.
00:55:47:22 00:55:49:02
Just offering her old pussy around...
00:55:49:15 00:55:52:02
Do not talk about my wife, you bastard.
00:55:52:22 00:55:53:02
Hello, you're all steamed up? Why?
00:55:53:22 00:55:54:22
I am not steamed up.
00:55:55:11 00:55:58:11
The house is down, son.
The house is down, mother fucker.
00:55:58:22 00:55:59:11
Leave me, you bastard.
00:55:59:22 00:56:01:22
No more funny business in that shitty place.
00:56:02:02 00:56:04:11
Funny business is what you are doing to me now.
I am a worker, I am telling you.
00:56:04:22 00:56:05:05
You're joking, right?
00:56:05:22 00:56:09:22
You stash the guns for the drug dealers who sniff powder and
fuck your woman and I am the one with funny business?
00:56:10:02 00:56:12:02
Do not talk about my wife.
00:56:12:11 00:56:13:11
Your wife is a whore, son.
You don't know this?
00:56:13:22 00:56:14:22
My wife is no whore.
You don't talk about my wife.
She is no whore at all.
Do not talk about my wife.
00:56:18:02 00:56:20:22
And keep your voice down in this shitty place.
Keep your voice down in this shitty place.
00:56:21:11 00:56:23:11
Do you want to die?
00:56:23:22 00:56:25:22
Do you want to die? You want to die.
00:56:26:02 00:56:28:22
Give me them guns you bastard. 'Fuck'.
00:56:29:11 00:56:30:22
Where are the guns, you bum?
00:56:36:22 00:56:37:22
Where are the guns, mother fucker?
00:56:38:22 00:56:39:11
Where are the guns, mother fucker?
00:56:42:11 00:56:45:11
There is no mother fucking gun, I am telling you.
00:59:48:00 00:59:51:00
Nothing, there is nothing.
00:56:56:22 00:57:00:02
Where are the guns, mother fucker?
Where are the guns, you bum?
00:57:02:11 00:57:03:22
Wake up. Wake up, you bum.
00:57:11:02 00:57:12:22
Talk now, mother fucker. Where are the guns?
00:57:13:11 00:57:17:11
It is over, Boi. It is over!
00:57:24:11 00:57:24:22
The house is down, Boi.
00:58:16:02 00:58:18:02
It is over, Medeiros. Shit this is going to stink, major.
00:58:18:22 00:58:22:22
No, it is not. Clean this shit and lose the body.
00:59:12:02
00:59:17:22
Amarildo, I say this with an open heart
00:59:18:02 00:59:19:11
with a clean soul.
00:59:20:11 00:59:21:22
Being the person he was on a very day basis
00:59:22:11 00:59:26:22
and because he was always there working on something.
00:59:26:01 00:59:28:11
He was glad to work.
00:59:29:01 00:59:30:22
It was the same thing with helping people.
00:59:31:11 00:59:34:22
I always saw Amarildo carrying a sofa,
00:59:35:02 00:59:38:11
or a fridge, carrying building materials for other people.
00:59:39:02 00:59:43:22
I saw him taking a neighbour who was ill to the hospital.
00:59:45:02
00:59:48:11
They managed to do something bad
00:59:49:11 00:59:51:11
something bad to such a good person.
01:00:29:01 01:00:31:11
Torture always existed in the country, always.
01:00:31:22 01:00:34:11
But it gets perfected in the civil military dictatorship
01:00:34:22 01:00:37:22
and then against thought, against ideas.
01:00:38:01 01:00:40:11
And we inherited this.
01:00:40:22 01:00:43:22
The Police inherited this. This practice was widespread
01:00:44:01 01:00:48:11
it goes for everyone. But today it essentially affects the
poorer level.
01:00:48:22 01:00:53:22
With the military dictatorship the police, especially the
military police.
it gains much
relevance.
01:00:54:02 01:00:57:22
Their numbers raised and they gain these powers on the
fringe of legality.
01:00:58:02 01:01:04:11
BOPE, for example, it was created by a colonel linked to the
dungeons of the dictatorship in 1978.
01:01:04:22 01:01:09:22
And there we have a relation of these paramilitary groups,
or ‘para-official’, right.
01:01:10:02 01:01:15:22
The military dictatorship, the military police and terror
model implemented during the dictatorship and
01:01:16:02 01:01:19:11
that was not dismantled with the re-democratisation of the
country.
01:01:19:22 01:01:23:02
Still today, we still have this interface
01:01:23:15 01:01:28:22
between a Police State, the punitive State and the State of
exception.
01:01:29:02 01:01:32:11
In a State with the rule of law, the State is limited by the
Law.
01:01:32:22 01:01:34:11
Now, in a Police State everything is allowed.
01:01:34:22 01:01:38:22
In a Police State it is a State that no longer is a
representation
01:01:39:02 01:01:42:02
of civil society or of a politically organised society
01:01:42:11 01:01:46:11
and therefore the State with their apparatus becomes the
enemy of society.
01:01:46:22 01:01:48:22
Be it through force or brutality
01:01:49:02 01:01:54:11
it seeks, right, not to be legitimised, but it seeks
affirmation through terror.
01:01:55:11 01:01:56:22
No violence !
01:01:57 01:02:00
Tarja preta
(source: Youtube) - Cartela
01:02:07:22 01:02:09:11
The violence on the 20th was very intense.
01:02:09:22 01:02:12:11
The police truly had no skill at all to deal with that kind
of event.
01:02:12:22 01:02:18:11
So, many people were wounded, constitutional rights were
violated in series.
01:02:18:22 01:02:22:11
The population was somewhat a hostage of the police training
which at that time was none.
01:02:22:22 01:02:26:22
Resist, resist, resist !
01:02:35:22 01:02:37:22
Resist, resist, resist !
Bastards!. Cowards! Cowards!
01:02:57:11 01:02:58:02
Stay.
01:02:59:15 01:03:01:22
Civil war, mother fucker.
01:03:08:22
01:03:11:22
And one demonstration after the other. The violence got worse and
01:03:12:02 01:03:13:22
this was a remarkable characteristic.
01:03:14:02 01:03:19:22
From aggressions with no grounds at all to arrests with no
justification.
01:03:25:11 01:03:29:01
No matter the reason, police violence has always been disproportional.
01:03:26 01:03:29
Renato Teixeira –
CAD – Solicitors’ Collective
01:03:32:22 01:03:34:22
It won't go beyond this point. It won't go beyond this
point.
01:03:35:11 01:03:38:22
No here. You are solicitors at the door of the police
station, but no here.
01:03:40:22 01:03:41:22
Really ignorant.
01:03:43:22 01:03:44:11
Switch this light off...
01:03:47:22 01:03:54:22
Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame. Shame.
01:03:55:02 01:03:56:22
Get out of here...
01:04:46:22
01:04:52:11
So the feeling the population has is that when it relates to
the State, the
01:04:52:22 01:04:56:11
State rejects it, and then it protests and then it gets
beaten up.
01:04:56:22 01:05:00:05
And in a police State the
power is not with the Police alone
01:05:03:11 01:05:07:22
But rather other Justice
agencies and with other purposes,
01:05:08:11 01:05:10:22
They start to act also
with a Police logic
01:05:12:11 01:05:13:11
And this is coordinated
within the State itself.
01:05:13:22 01:05:19:11
So one gets a repressive
State structure within the structure of the State.
01:05:19.22 01:05:22.11
The police started to repress the demonstrations
01:05:22.22 01:05:23.22
it is the police that always trained up in the slums.
01:05:24:11 01:05:27.22
Breaking in, kicking walls, slapping faces,
01:05:28:11 01:05:30:22
killing those who live there; this is the police that got
trained.
01:05:31:11 01:05:34:11
And the middle class said it was good, the police are
protecting us
01:05:34:22 01:05:38:11
The thing is that this police started to go to the
demonstrations and no longer protected the middle class.
01:05:38:22 01:05:41:11
All the violence people went through in the
demonstrations.
01:05:41:22 01:05:45:11
All the viciousness, all the incompetence of the police.
01:05:45:22 01:05:46:11
the media were there, filming it.
01:05:46:22 01:05:52:22
But in the communities here, it is a rare thing, one in a
million.
01:05:53:11 01:06:00:05
When one of those who live here has the courage to point a
camera and record a police action like this.
01:06:01:11 01:06:03:05
At this point Amarildo comes up as an icon.
01:06:04:11 01:06:07:11
As a symbol of what could be expressed, right.
01:06:07:22 01:06:12:22
Of all the feelings regarding this landmark of police
brutality.
01:06:13:05 01:06:15:11
And this spreads around the world. It didn't move Rio de
Janeiro, no it didn't.
01:06:20:11 01:06:21:22
Where is Amarildo?
01:06:22:11 01:06:33:22
Police. Where is Amarildo?
01:06:42:22 01:06:45:22
Where is Amarildo?
01:06:22:11 01:06:33:22
Where is Amarildo?
01:06:40:11 01:06:42:05
Hey, where is Amarildo?
01:06:42:22 01:06:45:22
Where is Amarildo?
Where is Amarildo?
01:06:46:02 01:06:47:01
The Amarildo case attracted attention
01:06:47:22 01:06:48:11
because after a long time without a strong demonstration
01:06:48:22 01:06:49:22
The slum came down so strongly
01:06:51:20 01:07:01:22
and served as an example, to trigger this action in other
people and other slums.
01:07:02:01
01:07:03:01
This was very important.
01:07:16 01:07:20
Rocinha, Nov 2, 2013 – All Saints Day (Cartela)
01:07:19:02 01:07:20:22
The police after 2007
01:07:21:01 01:07:23:22
was told, I have no doubt about it,
01:07:24:02 01:07:27:11
by their commanders, and started to changer this behaviour
01:07:28:02 01:07:29:22
and started to make people disappear.
01:07:30:01 01:07:31:22
So, we believe the police today
01:07:32:11 01:07:36:01
make the people they kill disappear,
01:07:36:22 01:07:39:01
and this is what has happened to justify it,
01:07:39:11 01:07:39:22
because there is no inquiry.
01:07:40:05 01:07:42:02
Close this, everyone. Let's round up, please.
01:07:42:22 01:07:45:22
closing the street, everyone. Closing it now, come on. Close
it now.
01:07:47:02 01:07:51:22
Death is a very hard thing, but a disappearance is ... it
deepens the loss.
01:07:52:02 01:07:57:05
You have not buried anyone, you cannot grieve, you didn't
say goodbye.
01:07:57:22 01:08:01:22
We are here because we are sad. Because our Pacifying Police
Unit
01:08:02:11 01:08:07:11
dragged my uncle from his family. That's enough. That's enough. It is not
because we are poor,
01:08:08:11 01:08:16:05
and live in a poor community, that we will be victims of the
State.

01:08:17:05 01:08:20:02
There is a say in Brazil that goes: Go after your rights.
01:08:21:05 01:08:23:22
But I think that most of the times it does not happen.
01:08:24:11 01:08:25:22
Because you have to after a right that you do not yet have.
01:08:26:11 01:08:28:22
The right you have you do not have to after it any more as
it already exists.
01:08:29:01 01:08:32:11
A right is not begged for, one does not crawl and beg for
it, it is demanded.
01:08:32:22 01:08:37:22
The Military Police in the state of Rio de Janeiro cannot
arrive at the slum with a free pass to do whatever they want and get away with
it.
01:08:38:22 01:08:45:22
I lost count of how many times I tried to talk to a
policeman, not because their internal rules expect you to.
01:08:46:11 01:08:51:22
Not their internal rules, no need to ask anything for me, as
I am no policeman.
01:08:52:22 01:08:53:22
You are the policeman.
01:08:54:02 01:08:59:11
With the excuse that Rocinha is a cartel, they made Rocinha
into a fortified structure.
01:08:59:22 01:09:06:22
Where one who lives in Rocinha is a private, getting orders
from any soldier.
01:09:07:11 01:09:08:22
Freeze, mother fucker! Freeze, you bastard!
01:09:09:05 01:09:11:01
What are you doing, you bastard? Is this the way to talk to
me?

Maria Eunice Dias
Lacerda – Amarildo’s sister
01:09:14:11 01:09:16:22
Amarildo's smile we'll never see that again.
01:09:17:01 01:09:19:22
Amarildo's face we'll never see that again.
01:09:21:22 01:09:26:22
The only thing left to the family was grief and sadness.
01:09:27:11 01:09:30:11
There is a concept of public security that emphasizes and
therefore keeps these two ways of seeing it,
01:09:30:22 01:09:37:22
that of War and that of the Enemy. And with a massively
punitive control, brutal and unlimited.
01:09:38:22 01:09:41:22
And when you give them a free pass, to the police do what
they want in the slum.
01:09:44:11 01:09:47:22
Because that is what the UPP is about. The UPP is the AI-5
slammed on the slums in Rio.
01:09:50:22 10:09:54:11
How was the DOPS called? The political (thought) Police.
01:09:55:11 01:10:05:11
What is an UPP? Same thing. It is only the year that
changes, the torture is the same, the disappearances are the same.
01:10:06:11 01:10:09:22
In the past it was the white university student that was
hunted down, right.
01:10:11:11 01:10:12:22
Now it is the children of black people and of
north-easterners who live in the slum.
01:10:13:22 01:10:17:11
The governor won't show up on national TV to speak. ‘I have
come to promote the control of the poor, through guns, rifles, and soldiers.
01:10:17:22 01:10:20:02
He will come and say he is fighting the enemy.
01:10:20:22 01:10:24:22
That he is fighting the drug traffic.
01:10:25:11 01:10:28:22
That he is promoting the good. That the State is now coming
in.
01:10:29:02 01:10:31:11
But when you try to find out, you'll see that before the UPP
01:10:31:22 01:10:36:22
the Government did work in the slums, especially in election
years.
01:10:47:10 01:10:50:01
The state Government would come and inaugurate some PAC
work, as it built the cable car in Alemão.
01:10:50:11 01:10:53:22
So what are they talking about when they say the State is
coming in now?
01:54:02 01:10:57:11
This is a lie. This is a lie, what is going on now is a
01:10:57:22 01:10:59:01
greater militarization of these places, the slums and the
areas around them.
01:10:59:22 01:11:06:22
The media play a major role in this. And Brazilian media is changing into
01:11:07:11 01:11:10:02
A conservative media, not analytical at all.
01:11:10:22 01:11:11:02
Every day the TV tells us that shots were exchanged in a
pacified area.
01:11:11:22 01:11:14:22
Either the area is pacified or there is a shootout.
01:11:15:05 01:11:18:22
In short, there is a short-circuit in critical reasoning
01:11:19:11 01:11:24:22
That would say ‘Look, it did not pacify it. It did not happen.
01:11:25:11 01:11:29:22
As a shootout, and deaths on both sides is an absence of peace.
01:11:30:02 01:11:36:22
There is this huge problem in there, right? And the
Brazilian media refuses
01:11:37:11 01:11:38:22
To reflect upon it in a decisive way.
01:11:39:02 01:11:42:11
If people try to learn what has been going on in the city,
01:11:43:01 01:11:46:22
they will see that the Amarildo case was not the problem of
the soldier who arrested
01:11:47:11 01:11:49:11
unduly, then tortured and killed a person.
01:11:49:22 01:11:54:02
The problem with Amarildo is a public security issue.
01:11:55:22 01:12:02:00
The UPP would only work if it were a Public Policy Unit
where the Police would be part of the project.
01:12:02:22 01:12:05:11
The Police being the Project will never work, neither in
Rocinha
01:12:05:22 01:12:07:11
nor in any slum and in no country either.
01:12:07.00 -01:12:11.00
The Police cannot be The Project of any place.
01:12:11.00 01:12:18.00
For all the consideration you have shown the family, we will
ask you to do this peacefully because this is our fight.
01:12:18.00 - 01:12:22.00
You have already destroyed our family and we would not like
you to destroy our dignity.
01:12:22.00 01:12:27.00
We are a dignified family and are among dignified friends,
so we'll walk in and do our demonstration,
01:12:28.00 01:12:33.00
say our prayers and then we will all leave peacefully,
holding each other's hands,
01:12:33.00 01:12:37.00
always struggling for our rights because this is enough.
01:12:38.00 01:12:43.00
A state that spends billions to buy armaments, increasing
the numbers of the police force,
01:12:4400 - 01:12:48.00
with Robocop armoured suits, repressing the demonstrations,
armoured cars,
01:12:48.00 – 01:12:56.00
armoured helicopters, assault rifles, spy bots, so much cash,
to control
01:12:56.00 - 01:13:00.00
and where is the advanced post of the Department of Culture
in Rocinha??
01:13:01.00 - 01:13:05.00
What is the advanced post of the Department of Social Services
and Human Rights in Rocinha??
01:13:06.00 - 01:13:10.00
What is the advanced post of the Department of Work and
Income in Rocinha??
01:13:11:00 - 01:13:15.00
There is none, but the UPP is there. Full of assault rifles,
stocked up with ammunition, to exercise social control.
01:13:15.00 - 01:13:25.00
A large share of the society and the public authorities are
not worried about it.
01:13:26.00 - 01:13:36.00
They think the social issue can be managed from a Police
perspective;
01:13:37.00 = 01:13:40.00
the social problem is no police matter.
01:13:56.00 - 01:14:03.00
If all the dwellers had gone with me, if all the people who
were suffering then
01:14:03.00 - 01:14:12.00
If all the communities that are experiencing this organised
themselves, in unison, to seek their rights, not submitting.
01:14:13.00 01:14:19.00
How many Amarildos died with no punishment of the
culprits? How many people died in
Rocinha?
01:14:19.00 01:14:23.00
And in Alemão,
Tabajaras, Chapéu Mangueira, Vidigal.
01:14:23.00 01:14:29.00
Which community there is where the young are not being
tortured? Which community is this where people are not being murdered?
01:14:30.00 01:14:36.00
How does one abandon, for over 4 decades, these people who
live in communities,
01:14:37.00 01:14:43.00
and then someone arrives to tell me that it is public
security that we need?
01:14:43.00 01:14:49.00
Imagine this, those who live in slums and around them, ever
more organised
01:14:49.00 01:14:52.00
and ever more assuming their roles, masters of their own
lives.
01:14:53.00 01:14:56.00
The Amarildo case was, in fact, the fuse that got lit.
01:14:56.00 - 01:14:59.00
For the person who lives in the slum, for those who do not.
01:15:00.00 - 01:15:04.00
They should see that we are the power.
01:15:05.00 - 01:15:07.00
The answer to this is the organisation of a network amongst
the slums.
01:15:08.00 - 01:15:12.00
The setting up of a network for people in a city, who
question this militarization model.
01:15:13.00 = 01:15:17.00
The person who lives in the slum has this Gabriela syndrome,
right?
Not only that, every Brazilian does, too.
01:15:18.00 - 01:15:21.00
I was born like this, I grew up like this, I will live like
this and I'll die like this, the song goes.
01:15:21.00 - -
01:15:22.00
No.
01:15:23.00 - 01:15:27.00
We can do it, we might even fail, man.
01:15:28.00 - 01:15:32.00
But the next generation will not go through what we've
endured.
01:15:32.00 - 01:15:35.00
We can change it, for the benefit of the next generation, oh
yes.
01:15:38.00 - 01:15:41.00
We will go to each place we have to, to create this network.
01:15:41.00 - 01:15:48.00
To make it strong and to strengthen our contacts, this link
that is ours,
that belongs to the society.
01:15:51.00 - 01:15:56.00
Come on, man... I was looking at the kids talking one of
these days,
01:15:57.00 - 01:16:01.00
it is the end of the year and they have this tradition to
dye their hair.
01:16:02.00 - 01:16:06.00
Go through New Year's Day with the hair dyed and so on. And
they were saying
01:16:07.00 - 01:16:10.00
Well, I am not going to dye my hair this year. And I asked
them why
01:16:10.00 - 01:16:14.00
And they said Well, if the police grab us, they will try and
beat us up.
01:16:15.00 - 01:16:19.00
Last year they said we were all criminals because we had all
dyed our hair yellow.
01:16:20.00 - 01:16:24.00
And then I said: Well, I'll dye mine yellow too and if the
police beat you up
01:16:24.00 - 01:16:30.00
they will have to get me too and tell me I have my hair dyed
yellow and we'll all go to jail together.
01:16:31.00 - 01:16:34.00
-
And they all got excited. And then everyone started to dye
their hair.
01:16:35.00 - 01:16:38.00
-
I said, if I do it, will you all do it, too? Listen to me, I'll
do it.
01:16:38.00 - 01:16:45.00
-
Everyone started to dye their hair, I had to buy the dye, and hydrogen peroxide
for everyone to dye their hair,
01:16:45.00 - 01:16:50.00
I even paid for them to have their hair dyed as everyone
joined in, including the neighbours.
01:16:51.00 - 01:16:55.00
Breno, the kids here, we are all close. Breno is there.
01:16:56.00 - 01:17:02.00
My front door neighbour and Paula's son, everyone with their
hair dyed blonde
01:17:03.00 - 01:17:06.00
and we'll go through the New Year all dyed yellow, that's
it.
01:17:08.00 - 01:17:12.00
A community that lives at ease, with more freedom, will have
more to gain.
01:17:13.00 - 01:17:18.00
As there are some paths to happiness, Peace, Culture,
Leisure.
01:17:19.00 - 01:17:22.00
A community that is cornered, beaten up from all sides,
01:17:24.00 - 01:17:27.00
moves away from such hope and its youngsters grow up in
rebellion.
01:17:27.00 - 01:17:31.00
One does not fight organised crime by sending in the
armoured cars into the alleys.
01:17:32.00 - 01:17:35.00
It will only produce more anger in the people who live in
the place.
01:17:36.00 - 01:17:40.00
I live in the slum and I demand respect, it is only my
rights that I am asking here.
01:17:40.00 - 01:17:44.00
Kicking doors without a warrant, this must be punished, it
cannot be like this.
01:17:45.00 - 01:17:48.00
It is all wrong, it is hard to even try to explain it.
01:17:48.00 - 01:17:52.00
And the way things are going, it is way past the breaking
point.
01:17:53.00 - 01:17:59.00
It is all wrong, so difficult to understand it, too.
There are people sowing the seeds of evil and wishing to
reap good
01:18:00.00 - 01:18:03.00
And jobless mothers, children out of school, that is the
cycle we see in this place.
01:18:04.00 - 01:18:07.00
It is thousands of accounts that are basically the same, it
is possible to see this.
01:18:08.00 - 01:18:11.00
I honestly can't see how this cycle would stop,
01:18:12.00 - 01:18:15.00
but the way they are treating us only helps this evil to
spread.
01:18:16.00 - 01:18:19.00
Police dying, criminals dying, and the second after another
one takes the place
01:18:20.00 - 01:18:23.00
of the dead one, to make it worse, and no one cares.
01:18:24.00 - 01:18:28.00
Now, my friend, it is all up to you, just to finish this.
01:18:29.00 - 01:18:32.00
The future of the slum depends on the fruit you choose to
plant.
01:18:33.00 - 01:18:36.00
Yes, it is all wrong. It is even hard to explain.
01:18:37.00 - 01:18:40.00
And the way things are going, it is way past the breaking
point.
01:18:41.00 - 01:18:43.00
It is all wrong, so difficult to understand it, too.
01:18:44.00 - 01:18:47.00
The Government sows evil and then want to harvest good.
01:18:48 – 01:18:51.00
At the end of production for this film (July
2014)
01:18:52.00 - 01:18:54.00
Major Edson and 2 other military police
officers
01:18:55.00 - 01:18:59.00
Still faced criminal charges for the torture
and death of Amarildo
THE FUSE

A community that lives at ease, with more freedom, will have

01:19.29.00 - 01:19.32.00
As there are some paths to happiness, Peace, Culture,
Leisure.
01:19.33.00 - 01:19.35.00
A community that is cornered, beaten up from all sides,
01:19.36.00 - 01:19.39.00
moves away from such hope and its youngsters grow up in
rebellion.
01:19.40.00 - 01:19.43.00
One does not fight organised crime by sending in the

01:19.44.00 - 01:19.47.00
It will only produce more anger in the people who live in

Kicking doors without a warrant, this must be punished, it

01:19.56.00 - 01:19.59.00
It is all wrong, it is hard to even try to explain it.
01:20.00.00 - 01:20.03.00
And the way things are going, it is way past the breaking
point.
01:20.04.00 - 01:20.06.00
It is all wrong, so difficult to understand it, too.
01:20.07.00 - 01:20.10.00
There are people sowing the seeds of evil and wishing to
reap good
01:20.11.00 - 01:20.14.00
It’s all wrong, so hard to explain.
01:20.15.00 - 01:20.18.00
And the way things are going, it is way past the breaking
point.
01:20.19.00 - 01:20.21.00
-
It’s all wrong, so hard to explain.
01:20.22.00 - 01:20.25.00
There are people sowing the seeds of evil and wishing to
reap good
01:20.26.00 - 01:20.29.00
And jobless mothers, children out of school, that is the
cycle we see in this place.
01:20.30.00 - 01:20.33.00
It is thousands of accounts that are basically the same, can
you see it.
01:20.33.00 - 01:20.37.00
I honestly can't see how this cycle would stop,
01:20.38.00 - 01:20.41.00
but the way they are treating us only helps this evil to
spread.
01:20.41.00 - 01:20.44.00
Police dying, criminals dying, and the second after another
one takes the place of the dead
01:20.45.00 - 01:20.48.00
one, to make it worse, and no one cares.
01:20.49.00 - 01:20.52.00
Now, my friend, it is all up to you, just to finish this.
01:20.53.00 - 01:20.57.00
The future of the slum depends on the fruit you choose to
plant.
01:20.58.00 - 01:21.01.00
Yes, it is all wrong. It is even hard to explain.
01:21.02.00 - 01:21.05.00
And the way things are going, it is way past the breaking
point.
01:21.06.00 - 01:21.08.00
It is all wrong, so difficult to understand it, too.
01:21.09.00 - 01:21.12.00
There are people sowing the seeds of evil and wishing to
reap good
01:21.14.00 - 01:21.16.00
Yes, it is all wrong. It is even hard to explain.
01:21.17.00 - 01:21.21.00
And the way things are going, it is way past the breaking
point.
01:21.22.00 - 01:21.24.00
It is all wrong, so difficult to understand it, too.
01:21.25.00 01:21.28.00
People sowing evil and wishing to reap good.
