Comando Vermelho

Wikipedia EN

Comando Vermelho, also known as CV, is a Brazilian criminal organization engaged in drug trafficking, arms trafficking, truckjacking, and turf wars. The group, originally known as Falange Vermelha, was formed in 1979 as an alliance between ordinary convicts and left-wing urban guerrillas who were imprisoned together during the 1964–1985 military dictatorship. They created codes of conduct and hierarchy, and employed urban guerrilla tactics for bank robbing; with their leaders controlling the organisation from inside the prison. In the early 1980s, the group changed its name to Comando Vermelho, and veered towards drug trafficking and territory control.
