[PHOTOS] See The VIP Prison Where Drug Lord, Jarvis Pavao Is Serving His 8-Year Jail Term
A Brazilian drug lord serving an eight-year prison sentence has been seeing out his time behind bars in a ‘VIP cell’ – complete with a plasma television, a kitchen, three rooms and a DVD library.
Jarvis Chimenes Pavao, was locked up in Tacumbu prison in Asuncion, Paraguay, after being found guilty of money laundering charges.
Yet Pavao, who is considered to be one of South America’s deadliest and most feared drug lords, was living the life of luxury behind pars in the Paraguayan prison.
Other inmates called it the ‘VIP cell’, thanks to its three rooms, en suite bathroom, 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.
But Pavao’s cushy life behind bars came to an end at his own doing, after officers began to suspect he was planning to detonate a bomb in order to smash through one of the jail walls and escape.
Investigators flooded the Brazilian’s cell in search of the explosives on Tuesday night, but instead found his luxury prison pad.
After the raid, Pavao’s lawyer said the lifestyle her client was able to lead while locked up was proof of how deeply corrupt the Paraguayan prison system had become.
