| At least 52 people have died in two nights of violence in Sao Paulo state, Brazil, with criminal gangs attacking police stations and riots in prisons. State officials say the unrest is being organised by the First Command of the Capital (PCC) criminal faction. There have been revolts in more than 70 state jails and more than 250 people are being held hostage. Chavez involved? |
