The last hell on Earth: Gitarama

Nowadays there are still some reconditos places that we could qualify as real hell. Forgotten spaces by humanitarian organizations, by politicians, by bold journalists...Dark corners that live in that underworld of legality , which is almost better not to know, so as not to be ashamed and avoid becoming more aware of how far the human being can go.

Today we want to talk to you about Gitarama prison .that many facts are not easy to assimilate, and that we have preferred to omit photographs, which on some occasion have been able to seep over what happens in this prison in Rwanda.

Today, we invite you to take an uncomfortable walk through the last circle of the hell of Africa.

The last hell of the Earth: the jail of Gitarama

This is how they usually describe this jail located in a corner of the jungle from Rwanda in Africa.While it is true that some A humanitarian organization has denounced the case, for now, the only thing that has been achieved is the promise that the facilities would be expanded in a few more pavilions.

For us to do A slight idea of ​​the overcrowding existing in Gitarama, we will tell you that with the dimensions and space they have, the legality marks that they should not house more than 600 prisoners.However, here, about 7,000 people reside .The figure never varies too much, because on average 5 people die daily, so new inmates can re-enter every so often without "any problem".

It is said that on one occasion he went to a group of representatives of the UN to certify everything that was said of the Gitarama jail.They did not last long inside the facilities, since in little more than half an hour they witnessed how they died 30 people for a bloody fight for the only food that They got the day.Did they do something after witnessing that humanitarian disaster? Not at all.

The last hell on Earth: Gitarama

You may wonder if, in view of the calamities suffered by the prisoners, some of them choose to escape, because of the escape.We will simply tell you that nobody considers it, since Gitarama is surrounded by a wire wall and spikes, plus tens and tens of kilometers mined with metal scrap and glass .Anyone who sounds with freedom knows that death is the only answer to their aspirations.There is no way out of Gitarama.None.And anyone who dares to leave the premises without the relevant documentation, knows that he will be shot immediately by the outside guards.

They have only one meal a day, always rice.as for water, there is not for everyone either.There are about 100 children under 14 years old, about 250 women, many of whom try to live with babies who From time to time they come to the world for the violations committed in the same jail; however, none live too long, they will soon be buried like the rest of the prisoners who die every day: they are all taken to mass graves to be covered with lime alive, thus accelerating decomposition.It is a task that never ends.

But, what are the causes for which all these people arrive at the jail in Gitarama? Some for murder, the majority for robberies.Others for being part of social revolts and hundreds of them for reasons that are not clear.However, nobody cares.The drip of deaths is unstoppable, and terrible is also that shadow that looms over the jail of Gitarama, that dreadful aspect that violates the most sacred principles of humanity: Cannibalism. The struggles to obtain food are continuous, hence on more than one occasion it has fallen in this extreme despair.

The last hell on Earth: Gitarama

Gitarama jail is undoubtedly the last and authentic hell of this world .A problem that is not well known and hopefully get a solution soon, some means so that humanity, respect and integrity for life are not violated more than this mode.
