Young drug traffickers pose for photos holding their guns in a slum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. When Associated Press journalists visit areas with authorization from the gangs, the ones who agree to be photographed cover their faces so they can't be identified.

Scenes of impunity and violence play out daily in many of Rio's hundreds of slums, known here as favelas, and other outlying areas. The vast majority of killings are the result of heavily armed gangs who frequently shoot it out in turf wars.Felipe Dana / AP-23

A police officer patrols among residents during an operation against drug traffickers at the "pacified" Jacarezinho slum in Rio de Janeiro on June 29.

The Pacification Police Units, known by the Portuguese acronym UPP, were created in 2008, setting up community stations in at-risk areas, mostly near sports venues, posh tourist districts and downtown. A drug gang leader called the program a "facade." He said that drug dealers were initially worried and kept a low profile, but soon it was back to business as usual.
