After the threat of the Rosario drug traffickers to Lionel Messithe lawyer and media Fernando Burlando He made a striking post on the subject on his Twitter account. “What do you think of persecuting and imprisoning the drug traffickers of Rosario and the suburbs in the Salvadoran style? Without hesitation, or guarantees,” asked the media outlet along with an image of the mass incarcerations that the president Nayib Bukele implemented in El Salvador to combat the gangs.
The tweet was published shortly after two men shot 14 times from a motorcycle against a local belonging to the family of Antonella Roccuzzo – Messi’s wife – and they left a letter with a message in which they threatened the footballer and targeted the mayor of Rosario, Pablo Javkin. “Messi we are waiting for you. Javkin is a narco, he is not going to take care of you, ”he read in the letter.
The publication caused a stir in the bird network, with more than 2,072 retweets and 29.8K likes. Some users commented “Excellent” and others, outraged at the proposal, questioned the lawyer. “I think you are up to your cheekbones with punitive populism,” shot a tweeter.
And it is that Bukele’s recipe has detractors. They object to the suspension of constitutional guarantees to apply it, and various Human Rights organizations speak of arbitrary detentions. Bukele came to build a mega-prison – The Containment Center for Terrorism (CECOT) – to house the members of the gangs, which opened a few days ago. This prison was built in an isolated rural area, about 74 km southeast of San Salvador and is the largest prison in the Americas, with 23 hectares of extension and with capacity for 40,000 people.
