A Brazilian drug lord serving an eight-year prison sentence, spent his time behind bars in a ‘VIP cell’ – complete with a plasma television, a kitchen, wardrobes, conference room, air conditioning, tiled walls, furniture, and library – complete with a DVD collection that included all episodes of a television show about Pablo Escobar.
Jarvis Chimenes Pavao, one of South America’s most notorious drug lords was sentenced to 8 years in prison after being found guilty of money laundering charges and was locked up in Tacumb prison in Asuncion, Paraguay, where he lived a life of luxury.
Tacumbu penitentiary is considered one of the most overcrowded and violent jails of Paraguay – with inmates often starving to death or being involved in riots.
