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.

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

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.
