Amnesty International warns that President Nayib Bukele's crackdown on gangs in El Salvador has led to a deepening human rights crisis, with 235 deaths in state custody and 327 cases of enforced disappearances. The government's disproportionate measures and denial of human rights violations have exacerbated the situation, leading to prison overcrowding at 148 percent. Despite international concerns, Bukele's administration has pledged to continue its campaign against gangs, prompting calls for a robust condemnation of any public security model based on human rights violations.
