A BBC investigation has used computer generated reconstructions to reveal what life is like inside Cecot, El Salvador’s so-called ‘mega-jail’.
The reconstruction was made possible thanks to videos and photos shared by the government, and media outlets who were given access to the prison before it opened.
Cecot has become a symbol of President Nayib Bukele’s notorious “war against gangs”, which the country’s ministry of security says has resulted in the detention of at least 68,000 people since the campaign began in March 2022.

Every country needs a prison like this, this is definitely a deterrent

Nice
If El Salvador got rid of their gangs problems it means that it's feasible for just about any country. It makes me sick to listen to medias that disagree with that. It's a dream come true for most citizens.
NEW CHINESE. MAX PRISONS IN EL SALVADOR FOR ENEMIES OF THE STATE, INCLUDING CALIFORNIAN CLAIM JUMPERS💀👑💀
CUANDO ELLOS ASEAINABAN 30 PERSONAS POR DIA, NADIE DECIA NADA. PORQUE TANTA PREOCUUPACOON POR LOS DELINCUENTE Y CUANDO ASESINABAN GENTE INOCENTE NO HABIAN DERECHOS HUMANOS.
These gangsters are very minority of people who lost their freedom but the majority of people who achieved their freedom are very important.
Every country in the world should have a similar system!
U can’t have both the murder rate went down 56.48% lol yes humans shouldn’t be there but ma’am sir these are monsters lol demons 😅😂 throw away the key.
When your culture and people are constantly at risk, drastic action must be taken for future generations. America is next
thats not true I saw a doc on this prison & cameraas were inside
crime has plummeted………..sure some innocent men are there but that country was crazy with crime no more
US Fake News media needs sent there! TRUMP 24!🇺🇸

At 4:28 , dozens of prisoners with NO tattoos ?
Bbc should probably talk about human rights in GAZA ..bloody hypocrites…
This is how prisoners should be kept. The UK should try it rather than letting paedos from the BBC run free and locking people up for tweets.

The Americans, brits and frenchmen will undermine and destabilize this country with sneaky interference and corruption to fit their agenda like they've done before in other LA countries. Wait and see.
Human rights doesn’t work for criminals
It’s inevitable that wrongfully convicted innocent citizens have to face this.
If you act like an animal you should expect to be treated like one…
El Salvador's murder rate has gone down 70% these types of inmates are beyond rehabilitation, and can only be locked away.
Fantastic jail for bad people
Wonder if anyone at bbc watched funky town
As a American i wish we had one for the worse of the worse

These human rights groups remind me of the homeless activist groups. Not sure who got the money yet after billions of taxpayer money spent I still see the same homeless people I did a decade ago. They are about as effective as a blank billboard.
They tried to threaten the president for doing this by killing innocent people and president told em “your homeboys won’t see a gram of rice if you keep killing people” and the killing stopped or atleast slowed down. The inmates already lost their meat privileges now imagine losing your rice privileges. 😅 but in other words there will be a lot room for more inmates if they lose their rice 😅

Ion give AF, this man did his BIG ONE with Cecot! The terror was HORRIBLE for those citizens!
The Brazilian people's dream is to see a prison full of criminals.
I found this very well made and exhaustive documentary made inside the prison, it is perfectly created and goverened for these kind of criminals. Human rights just take your hands off and mind your own business about it:

This is the treatment I will like to give my country's leadership, past and present.
So the Red Cross recommends more feet per person which I think is more footage than the brutally butchered victims coffin's have. Shame on the RED cross
That’s the problem with the US “human rights” if you commit a crime you don’t deserve any type of rights!!! We need to adopt this method and stop those repeat offenders.
If human right activists want to protect those criminals or give them human rights. Maybe they should be sent there as well. Those criminals killed innocents. The president of El Salvador certainly seems to have done an amazing thing to keep his country safe. Something no party in the UK will ever do.
Britain can have the all gang members and give them free housing.
Who cares human rights , these Evils with corrupted politicians ruin the life of young people around the world .
