El Salvador's prisons, particularly the new mega-prison, the Center for the Confinement of Terrorism (CECOT), epitomize the country's stringent approach to gang-related crime. CECOT, designed to house 40,000 inmates, is a high-security facility featuring advanced surveillance, isolation cells, and a heavily militarized environment.

This prison forms part of President Nayib Bukele's aggressive anti-gang strategy, which has included mass arrests and sweeping legal reforms. While the government claims these measures are essential for reducing violent crime and restoring public safety, human rights organizations have raised concerns about overcrowding, due process violations, and inhumane conditions within these facilities.

The stark, fortress-like prison complex symbolizes both the administration's hardline stance on crime and the contentious debate over human rights and security in El Salvador. The situation reflects broader tensions between maintaining public order and safeguarding civil liberties in a society grappling with deep-rooted violence and inequality. https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1821661975279017985/vid/avc1/990x558/7kSPAijtGelYEvKg.mp4?tag=16
