BRASILIA (Reuters) - A German tourist was shot and seriously wounded in the stomach on Friday in one of Brazil's largest slums, where drug traffickers still control areas despite a crackdown in 2011.
Frank Daniel Benjamin, 25, was shot in an alley of the poorest section of the Rocinha slum on Rio de Janeiro's south side, a police statement said. A local resident picked him off the ground and carried him to a police unit from where he was rushed to hospital with a serious wound to the liver.
The shooting added to a recent wave of violence that has hit visitors to Rio, including the brutal kidnapping and rape of an American tourist that shocked the tourist trade.
The violence just weeks before Rio hosts soccer games in a warm-up for the 2014 World Cup has raised alarm over the city's ability to control crime and ensure the safety of visitors in a city that will also hold the Olympic games in 2016.
IS Brazil READY to welcome the tourists???? Obviously not... this is just one simple example.
That´s why Sudamericanismos insists on the moto: BRAZIL IS NOT YET READY!!! We have to organize this country first...
The government is blind. Thinking on the money. Only the money.
- People die on hospitals alleys while stadiums are been built.
- People die on streets because the lack of a good police force, while hookers learn English to communicate with many of the tourists that will came for sex-tourism.
- People are been raided on restaurants by criminals while so-called-famous-people advertises the great improvements of the next world cup.
- TOURISTS ARE BEEN RAPED and the government is worried ´cose FIFA is not happy enough...
Got it??? Am I been clear enough??? Read the papers, get informed and get a life! BOYCOTT BRAZIL WORLD CUP´TILL THINGS GET BETTER.
MOVIMENTO PAREM TUDO... VAMOS COMEÇAR A PARAR TUDO????
