RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Prosecutors in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday charged an additional 15 state police officers in the torture and death of a bricklayer who disappeared from a city slum in July.
Ten officers were also charged earlier this month in the case which prosecutors say involved abduction, torture, slaying and coverup by police, who said they believed the 42-year-old construction worker, Amarildo Dias de Souza, had information about drugs and weapons in the Rio slum.
