RIO DE JANEIRO SECURITY INCIDENTS – 5TH BULLETIN OF AUGUST

The Cláudio Castro (PL) administration failed to reach the targets for three of the four crime indicators in Rio de Janeiro. The numbers are established by the state government itself to serve as a guide in reducing violence. However, in the first half of 2023, only one index, that of street robberies, met expectations and recorded a decline. The other three had an increase compared to the same period of last year. They are: violent lethality, theft of vehicles and cargo. The goals are part of the Strategic Security Plan and are formulated by the Public Security Institute (ISP), the Military and Civil Polices. In the first six months of this year, the number of violent fatalities was 2,359 deaths, an increase of 8.5% compared to the first half of 2022. The indicator accounts for the total number of intentional homicides, injuries followed by death, robbery and death by police in the state. The target was 2,153. Regarding vehicle theft, the goal set by the state would be 11,707 stolen vehicles in the first half of 2023 – the same number as last year. The indicator, however, scored 12,131. The situation is the same for cargo theft. The target was 1,910 such cases, as registered in 2023, but the actual number was 2,111.
