A BBC investigation has used computer generated reconstructions to reveal what life is like inside Cecot, El Salvador’s so-called ‘mega-jail’. The reconstruction was made possible thanks to videos and photos shared by the government, and media outlets who were given access to the prison before it opened. Cecot has become a symbol of President Nayib Bukele’s notorious “war against gangs“, which the country’s ministry of security says has resulted in the detention of at least 68,000 people since the campaign began in March 2022.
