A day after the police operation paralyzed the city, residents of the Complexo da Penha favela recovered dozens of bodies from a forest on its outskirts, including one that was decapitated, AFP journalists witnessed.

“They slit my son’s throat, cut his neck, and hung the head from a tree like a trophy,” said Raquel Tomas, the mother of the 19-year-old who was found decapitated.

“They executed my son without giving him a chance to defend himself. He was murdered,” she told AFP, her voice shaking.

“Everyone deserves a second chance. During an operation, police should do their job, arrest suspects, but not execute them,” Tomas added.
