El Salvador President Visited the new High Security Terrorism Center Prison in the Country

Dubbed the 'Terrorism Confinement Center' by the authorities, it was built in an isolated rural area in a valley near Tecoluca. President Nayib Bukele visited the property (https://t.me/tupireport/10659), which has 166 hectares, with a dozen pavilions occupying 23 hectares.

For 10 months, El Salvador's leader has been at war with gangs and has launched a campaign to repress gang violence (https://t.me/tupireport/11418). The country, which has 6.5 million inhabitants, has 2% of the population in prison and sees that number increase daily because of the promise made by the president. The new prison was built to relieve the prison system, which is now facing overcapacity, and, according to Bukele, allow gang members access to merchandise such as video games, drugs and cell phones, which will not happen in 'America's largest prison'.
