President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador was given special powers by a state of emergency, suspending fundamental rights, such as the right to a lawyer or knowing why you were arrested.

Authorities in El Salvador have been rounding up tens of thousands of alleged participants of the country's most feared gangs over the past two years. The crackdown came after a state of emergency granted President Nayib Bukele special powers in April 2022, suspending basic rights such as the right to a lawyer or being told of why you were arrested. He was able to start a full war on El Salvador's street gangs, resulting in the arrest of more than 76,000 prisoners, 12,000 of whom were detained in Tecoluca's huge central jail, which is packed in like sardines. The war against gangs in Bukele has been credited with returning stability and dignity to residents of what was once one of the world's most violent nations. According to observers and victims, the price is paid in arbitrary arrests, inhumane detention, even torture - and even torture - a new kind.

According to a women's organisation, the woman (pictured), who gave her name only as Lilian, was sentenced to prison under tougher rules on Wednesday.' Lilian appeared in the media on Wednesday for the first time since her release from a 30-year prison term in December, and she has urged the nation's media to avoid naming women who experience obstetric emergencies. 'It's great because despite going through a lengthy process, my innocence could be confirmed,' the 28-year-old told AFP news agency. Lilian gave birth in a public hospital in western El Salvador in 2015, but her baby girl, who suffered with seizures, died 72 hours later, according to her lawyer Abigail Cortez. After being accused of "abandonment and neglect,' she was charged with 'aggravated homicide,' with lawyers arguing she did not do enough to protect the fetus while pregnant.

Nayib Bukele, the world's coolest dictator, has incarcerated more than 75,000 offenders. However, a murder rate that hit 106 percent nine years ago dropped to 2.4 last year, making 2023 the 'best year in El Salvador's history.' Just 7,000 of those rounded up have been released, with the remainder being penned into a rapidly expanding network of austere prisons to the horror of human rights organisations. However, Bukele's approval ratings have risen to around 90% in a world beset by gangs and cartels, including the notorious MS-13 and 18th Street gangs.

According to a Houston federal court, a high-ranking MS-13 leader would be required to appear in New York on suspicion of funding terrorist attacks in El Salvador, Mexico, the United States, and elsewhere.

Prisoners are begging for food and medicine for the terminally ill dying around them in Tecoluca's huge Center for Terrorism (CECOT). The jail is packed with 12,114 prisoners, many of whom are feared gangs MS-13 and Calle 18, with history proving that foot soldiers would have no opportunity to hurt their enemies. Around 75 largely insecure prisoners who sleep in metal cabins are forced to share only two toilets and two sinks in each 100 square-meter cell. According to human rights organisations, they have no mattresses, no chance to step outside into the fresh air, and they are routinely beat and tortured by the guards.

Bukele's account, which has 1.4 million followers, has shown how record incarceration rates and persistent policing have effectively put an end to cartel dominance in the region.

GRAPHIC CONTENT: South America has some of the world's most dangerous jails, where bloodshed and murder are so prevalent that even the armed guards, who are supposed to keep order, are too afraid to enter them. Decades of woeful underinvestment by governments around the continent have resulted in the devastation of concrete hellholes containing cocaine and held heroin-fueled raves. In some squalid lock-ups, prisoners lock their own mouths shut, while some prisoners, who were brutally slaughtered by opponents, are left to rot in their cells, and gay prisoners are barred from rooftops. As rival gangs armed with weapons and knives squabble each other in a brutal war for supremacy, some penitentiaries, whose massive walls are topped with razor wire, are turned into blood-spattered warzones.

According to a study published by a human rights group, at least 153 people who were arrested after El Salvador introduced emergency powers have died in state detention. In the President Nayib Bukele's 'war on gangs,' special powers were introduced in March 2022 to combat powerful street gangs based in El Salvador.' According to the report by Central American human rights group Cristosal, none of those who died, which included four women and the majority being men, were guilty of a felony at the time of their detention.

Millions of prisoners are incarcerated in some of the world's highest security detention facilities, which are operated with military precision. Many of the maximum-security jails are held in the highest regard, with few ever being in breach by an inmate, but that hasn't stopped some from trying. Some of the country's toughest jails include Joaqun 'El Chapo' Guzmán, Mexico's Sinaloa drug cartel's leader, and Unabomber 'Ted' Kaczynski, 79. Prisoner locks are among the items that hold prisoners in their cells. CCTV cameras that track prisoners 24/7, wirelessly operated doors, gesture sensors, and perimeter fences are just a few of the items that keep prisoners locked up in their cells. Some prisoners are allowed to speak at mealtimes, while others provide a platform for stripping people of their individuality - often without referring to them by their names. DailyMail.com investigates the more impenetrable prisons around the world as El Salvador prepares to welcome another wave of violent criminals yet again.

In the aftermath of tight security, the second group of 2,000 prisoners were moved to the new Izalco jail, the country's biggest mega-prison built to hold more than 40,000 prisoners. The heavily beaten and barefoot men, who were only wearing white shorts, were seen hurriedly walking around with their heads raised and hands cuffed behind their backs as they hurriedly walked around with their heads bowed and hands cuffed behind their backs. Inmates are expected to sleep on bare four-story sheet metal bunks without mattresses, according to the most recent inside the facility.

El Salvador's new mega prison is already packed with bitter rivals from two of North and Central America's most feared clans, MS-13 and Calle 18, with history proving that foot soldiers will attempt to murder their enemies at any opportunity. The massive CECOT 'Terrorism Confinement Center' complex, which opened just in January, is incredibly difficult, with human rights organisations already comparing it to a concentration camp. More than 100 prisoners share a cell, each of which has just two toilets. All are given a little less than one square meter to live and sleep. They have no mattresses, no outdoor spaces, and they are often attacked, assaulted, and exploited.

ROWE OF RAPHAEL: Heads are bare, their hands are cut behind their backs and ankles, and 2,000 men convicted of gang violence are herded into a recently built mega-prison in El Salvador. Cops in riot gear shave the convicts' heads off the ground. The men are pressed up against one another in a battery farm, stripped of all personal identity. They appear to be carbon copies of each other, naked to the waist, tattooed, and locked into the same subtitutive pose. When filming my Netflix series Inside The World's Toughest Prisoners, I've been to some of the world's most brutal detention facilities, including maximum-security jails in Costa Rica and Belize in Central America. But the intensity of these new photos, as well as the sheer dehumanization of dehumanization, is astonishing, even to me.

El Salvador's first 2,000 prisoners of suspected gang members - who on arrival found that there are not enough beds for everyone and there are no mattresses at all. The center is designed to house 40,000 suspect gangsters, and the security minister for the Central American nation told prisoners that they will never walk out of here.' Following President Nayib Bukele's 'war' on crime, the transition to the high-tech jail was made.

The Terrorism Confinement Center (pictured), which will be guarded by over 800 soldiers and police officers, will more than double El Salvador's jailer capacity. The jail, which is slated to last 30 days, would house some of the 63,000 suspect gang members who were jailed under a 10-month state of emergency. 'All the terrorists who caused (due) sorrow and agony to the Salvadoran people will serve their sentences... under the most stringent regime,' said Deputy Justice Minister Osiris Luna. El Salvador has the world's highest incarceration rate, with nearly two percent of the country's adult population in prison.

When his two cohorts were trying to smuggle him from El Salvador to Guatemala, a fugitive MS-13 member was discovered hiding inside a coffin. Cops patrolling a highway in Santa Ana, Mexico, became suspicious of the casket hanging over the car's roof and pulled over the driver for an inspection just 12 miles away from the Guatemalan border. Alexander Hernández was discovered inside the box, covered by a white sheet.

Following a string of homicides, El Salvador declared a 30-day state of emergency in March, giving authorities special powers to crack down on criminal organisations that engage in extortion and drug trafficking, as well as wage wage wars against each other. El Salvador's Congress extended their powers by an additional 30 days on Tuesday, the fifth time since they were first introduced. In a rural area of the country's capital of Tecoluca, pictured top-left inset), a large jail for 40,000 gang members should be completed by the year's end. The 'Terrorism Confinement Center' is Bukele's name. It would have 2,000 meters of perimeter walls as well as an additional electric fence.
