Trafficking ostentation: see leisure areas and luxury swimming pools that the police found in Rio de Janeiro | Rio de Janeiro

Bope finds Alemão traffic leisure area with LED pool

g1 found that the place used to be rented for parties. The lounge pool has LEDs and the construction is luxurious.

Police officers from the Special Operations Battalion (BOPE) claim that the place was mainly used as a leisure area for drug traffickers from the Red Command.

House with pool and waterfall in Rocinha is demolished

The property was valued at more than R$1 million. The area was a kind of “haven” for criminals in the middle of the favela and was being renovated.

The house had a slide and a swimming pool – with a waterfall – with a capacity of 100 thousand liters of water and a depth of 3 meters, as well as a barbecue. The two-story plot was 450 square meters in total.

In July last year, military police found three of the mansions of drug trafficker Peixão, who controls Complexo de Israel, in Parada Lucas. According to the head delegate of the Narcotics Repression Police Station Rodrigo Coelho, he also owns a farm.

The houses in Álvares Malaquias Santa Rosa had a gym with new equipment, synthetic grass, a social area, a swimming pool, an artificial lake and a pedal boat, as well as expensive furniture and appliances and a hot tub.

Houses with porcelain tiles, marble stairs and expensive furniture are also part of the reality of drug dealer Peixe, from Vila Aliança, and Chico Bento, from Jacarezinho.

All the luxury contrasts with the reality outside these properties, where poor families live and are experiencing financial difficulties and food insecurity. Alemão’s luxury party house makes this clear – in the background of the photo, you can see that few houses have plaster on the walls.
