Renan Santos: Now, the one about the war against crime specifically I haven't seen yet.
Renan Santos: That is to declare a state of defense, which is a special status under the Constitution, for favelas and cities that are under the control of crime.
And then, with the assistance of the police and the armed forces, the federal government and the state governments enter, take over those places, set up a dedicated barracks, and then you go out arresting or, if necessary, setting fire to members of the factions.
Renan Santos: And there you free those people.
Renan Santos: With legislation, only then does the criminal law of the enemy come into force; forming a new faction would become very onerous, very difficult.
