Human rights organizations and favela movements \u2013 participants in ADPF Case 635, known as the ADPF Favelas Case \u2013 asked the Supreme Court on Wednesday, August 3, to require the State of Rio de Janeiro to install audio and video cameras on the uniforms and vehicles of the elite military police units BOPE and CORE, and also in the police stations located in areas that suffer from the highest rates of police lethality.<\/span><\/p>\n

The petition filed with the Supreme Court also requests that, if it is not possible to install new cameras within the established time frame, the Rio de Janeiro state government should transfer equipment from other units with lower rates of police lethality.<\/span><\/p>\n

The request came after yet another massacre in Rio de Janeiro. This time in the Alem\u00e3o favela complex, on June 21, when at least 18 people were killed. Both BOPE and CORE participated in the police action. <\/span><\/p>\n

Body cameras on uniforms<\/b><\/h2>\n

The plaintiffs have already requested in the case that the state government install GPS and audio and video recording systems in police vehicles and uniforms, prioritizing officers who work in poor communities. In May of this year, the state government began installing the equipment in Military Police units in upscale neighborhoods such as Leblon and Copacabana.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the lawyer Gabriel Sampaio, coordinator of the program to Combat Institutional Violence at Conectas, the use of technology to reduce police abuse and lethality is welcome, and the measure has also contributed to reducing deaths among police officers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe use of cameras is one of the key measures to combat police violence. Data [also from the Military Police Internal Affairs Office] demonstrate their importance, namely the reduction of up to 85% in police lethality in S\u00e3o Paulo. The measure also led to the reduction of deaths among police officers, of 78%,\u201d said Sampaio. \u201cTo continue the good results, however, it is important for the measure to be accompanied by a guarantee of transparency and effective social control, through the participation of civil society organizations, and external control, through the Public Prosecutor\u2019s Office, with regard to the use of images.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>
