He called his former limpet (wife) and then he killed himself!

The victim tied a rope to the fan to end his life.

A man could not stand the separation of his female partner and he made a call through WhatsApp to warn her that he was going to kill himself. The help arrived late and they could not save it.

The separation of the couple is almost always very traumatic for one of the spouses. What's more, it can even lead to death due to depression. A man who was going through this process left his limpet about four months ago and could not assimilate it apparently. Gilberto Paniagua Fleitas (36) made the decision that it was not worth living without the company of his partner and hung himself in a room of the house where he was living with his two children of only 2 and 6 years old.

This tragedy happened in the city of San Juan del Paraná, department of Itapúa. When Gilberto was already sure of his fatal decision, he made a video call to his ex-partner and told her that he was going to commit suicide and then hung himself from a beam on the roof of the house. The woman called the brother of the suicide desperately and the police officer of the Comisaría( police station) 33 zonal. His brother went speedily to the man´s residence, but unfortunately he had already arrived late to try to change the decision of the man. He found him hanging already without any sign of life.
They tried to revive him , but there was no case, since the Angel of Death had already taken him to the beyond. Then the agents of the Public Defendant´s Office were summoned.

Nearly 60 inmates were killed at four different prisons in the capital of Brazil’s northern Amazon as state over two days amid apparent riots, authorities said.

Officials with the state prison agency said at least 40 inmates were found at three different prisons in Manaus on Monday and they all showed signed of asphyxia.

Their deaths came just a day after 15 inmates were killed during a riot at Manaus’ Anisio Jobim Prison Complex – the same place 56 prisoners died in similar violence two years earlier.

While little information was released about Monday’s killings, local officials said prisoners began fighting among themselves before noon Sunday during visiting hours at Anisio Jobim.

They said security reinforcements were rushed in and managed to regain control within 45 minutes.

“Everyone started to run, and everyone was pounding on the cell gates, at the doors, and running down the corridors,” said Col. Marcus Vinicius, who is in charge of the prisons in the Amazonas state, according to the BBC. “It was not a rebellion, it was fighting among inmates.”

Those killed were either choked to death or stabbed with toothbrushes in front of visitors, the Independent reported.



On Monday, 25 inmates were killed at the Antonio Trindade penal institute, while six were killed at the Puraqueruara jail. Five were killed at the Provisional Detention Center for Men while four more were killed at Anisio Jobim, according to the O Globo,

Brazil’s justice and public security ministry said it was sending a federal task force to help local officials handle the situation.

"I just spoke with (Justice) Minister Sergio Moro, who is already sending a prison intervention team to the State of Amazonas, so that he can help us in this moment of crisis and a problem that is national: the problem of prisons," Amazonas state Gov. Wilson Lima said.


These incidents were not the first time violence has broken out in the city’s prisons.

In early 2017, more than 120 inmates died at the hands of other prisoners during several weeks of fighting among rival crime gang members. Many of those victims had their heads cut off or their hearts and intestines ripped out.

Several drug-trafficking and criminal gangs in Brazil run much of their day-to-day businesses from inside prisons. Authorities have not said whether gang wars were behind the latest blood-letting.



Moro had to send a federal task force to help tame violence in Ceara state in January that local officials said was ordered by crime gang leaders angered by plans to impose tighter controls in the state's prisons.

Holden,

Thank you for your words and the news from Brazil. It is you, Hentrich and Silenus, Ibra and others who write excellent posts. I just scribble things you already know and experience every day. Of course everyday life in India is very different from here. The numbers, just in population, are overwhelming. Even life in the U.S. where most here want to follow the so-called American way of life is very different. 

Your sentence in English: “If one wishes to extinguish  this fire called life then one must not pour  gasoline into  it.” is worth remembering at all times.

In two weeks more or less we have another celebration called Día del Padre or Father´s Day. Another good day for business specially now that the economic situation is getting worse.

The real criminals, so to speak, are in the government here, there and everywhere. They should be called the organized crime. We have paramilitary and parapolice forces. But we forget the parapoliticians.

Yesterday I heard on the radio that a 30-year old girl, pregnant with twins, and already a mother of two, was robbed and later gunned down three times in her neck. They cannot operate her in the hospital because of the risk of losing the twins. They stole her money, more or less 900 U.S. dollars and her phone. The rumors are that the two sicarios (assassins) were hired by her male partner to kill her. But they failed and later were arrested. Supposedly one of the sicarios is his brother. A radio reporter called these two macaques and complained that the police did not kill them right away. A really creepy business. One tragedy among millions.

About the riots in Brazilian prisons, well, I heard a little about it. Here the main state prison, Tacumbú, can only house 1,000 inmates but it has 4,000 inmates. It is considered to be the most dangerous prison in this continent.

I read something about Edshu, the trickster god of the Yoruba in West Africa. Once Edshu, saw two farmers plowing the fields. He then decided to play a trick on them. Wearing a hat that showed red, white, green, and black color on each side, the front, and the back, he walked towards the fields. Later the two farmers told that they saw a stranger with the hat. One farmer said the hat had been red, while the other said it had been white. Soon the farmers got into an argument, which turned into a brawl. The people separated them and took them before the village headman. The headman could not resolve the conflict. At that point, Edshu joined the crowd and revealed his identity. He admitted to playing tricks on the farmers and said, “Spreading strife is my greatest joy.” Yes, this is what Edshu does with humans.

Stay safe and sound.

Holden,

To answer your question, I can only say that two years ago the Civil Record Office said that 20,000 matrimonies are registered every year while there is an average of 1,000 divorce cases. I know that in 2017 thousands of people are living under concubinage.

The causes are lack of money and work, infidelity, domestic violence, alcoholism, lack of maturity because many get married very young and later they found that they are not meant to live together. Also many Paraguayans, both husbands and wives, went abroad to work and when they come back they find that things at home are different.  They separate or divorce.  Most of they decide to stay in Spain, Argentina, Brazil, or even the USA with new partners. These are some of the causes for divorce in this country.

Stay well.

Ibra,

Thank you for your response. I only scribble here. Probably much of what I say here is nonsense. As you say life is incoherent. About the sleeping pills that you take, I stopped taking Prozac four months ago. It makes you docile or unable to react. But I suppose that is the reason these doctors prescribe these pills. To help you cope with this feast of fools called life.

As you also say Holden's sentence “If one wishes to extinguish  this fire called life then one must not pour  gasoline into  it.” is a spot-on.” But that is what millions of human creatures called homo sapiens do every day.

I read once that after the creation, the Winnebago trickster god Wakdjunkaga,also called The Tricky One, of the Hochung tribe in Wisconsin, USA, scattered all creatures across the entire Earth by farting. His farting was essential to the creation of life on this hell called Earth. So we are just human farts.

Stay well.
