In late September, a battle among gang members in Litoral prison killed at least 118 people in what authorities described as the South American country’s worst ever prison massacre. Officials said at least five of the dead were beheaded. In February, 79 inmates were killed in simultaneous riots in various prisons. So far this year, more than 300 prisoners have died in clashes in penitentiaries across the country.
