OLINDA, PERNAMBUCO, BRAZIL – OCTOBER, 2025 Angry mob attacked a man suspected of several thefts in the suburbs of Recife. They showed no mercy: they brutally beat him, threw stones at him, and stomped on him. The incident occurred in the Sapucaia district. There are no updates available on his medical condition.
It’s important to note that taking justice into one’s own hands is never a good idea – especially in Brazil, where the state justice system works fairly well. Even a thief has the right to life and a fair trial. The only right you have is to detain the thief until the police arrive.
