Guayaquil, Oct 1 (EFE).- The disturbing images circulating on social media about the massacre in the Guayaquil jail Tuesday left horrifying human testimonies such as that of Marlene Palma, a mother of an inmate who Friday was waiting at a municipal morgue for the restitution of her son's head."I already got in. What happens was that they could not find the head (of my son) to give me the body, because they beheaded him and burned the head. So I'm waiting for the body. I already got in and they already helped me," a woman from the south of Guayaquil and a mother of the deceased inmate told EFE. Ecuador's armed forces took charge of the Guayaquil prison on Thursday on the orders of President Guillermo Lasso, who declared a 60-day state of emergency in the penal system.

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak says the UK has sanctioned officials running the Arctic penal colony where Russian opposition figure and critic of President Vladmir Putin Alexei Navalny died, saying Britian and its allies were considering "all options to hold Russia and Putin to account". "He died for a cause to which he dedicated his whole life - freedom - and to return home knowing that Putin had already tried to have him killed is one of the most courageous acts of our time," he tells members of parliament.
