Clauvino da Silva was serving a sentence of more than 70 years for drug trafficking

Prison authorities in Brazil have found convicted drug dealer Clauvino da Silva dead in his cell, three days after an elaborate escape was foiled.

Prison officials said it appeared that Silva had hanged himself.

Guards on Saturday stopped Silva as he tried walk out of the prison disguised as his teenage daughter .

A video showing him removing his disguise - which included a silicone mask and a wig - piece by piece received widespread media coverage.

Silva was 42 and was serving a sentence of 73 years and 10 months for drug trafficking.

On Tuesday guards found him in his cell in Bangu 1 prison in Rio de Janeiro state, to which he had been transferred after his unsuccessful escape attempt.

Brazilian news site O Globo reported that he had been held in solitary confinement since his transfer.

Silva made headlines after he attempted to escape from Bangu 3 jail by donning a silicone mask, black wig, glasses, bra and T-shirt in an attempt to look like his 19-year-old daughter, who had visited him.

Guards were not fooled by the disguise and took a video of Silva as he removed his disguise step by step.

Silva's daughter, who had stayed in his cell while her father tried to escape, was being investigated along with eight other people for their alleged involvement in the attempted jailbreak.

Silva had escaped from prison once before, in 2013, when he absconded through the sewer system of a jail in Gericin. He was later apprehended.

Reactions.

It seems he chose death rather than spend the rest of his life in prison.

Crime does not pay. It may seem to at first, but later it will choke you, then eventually kill you

I understand the man jare.
Other inmates seeing how sexy the man can be go begin to dey eye him Yansh. Them go turn the Yansh to canal.
With all the kind big big preeq wey him dey see for their bathroom,curved ones, even the ones wey get teeth ,na him he kukuma take him life.

He had mercy on his Yansh.

He was so frustrated that he hanged himself

He was probably going to die there either way as 73 Years and 10 months is a long time

I'm not sad. Any man who would want to escape from prison while locking his own daughter inside instead is not a real man.

Good for him.
Next

The wardeners had him killed because this report didn't explicitly say he was found hanging. As someone said, he probably knew he was marked. RIP to him.
We might say he was callous. At least, his daughter was willing to save him, implying there's something fishy. But wetin we know. There's always a tenth part to a story.

Now, that's the ultimate escape... He didn't just escape from jail this time; he also escaped from life itself.

Whether he did it himself or someone did him the 'honours' will remain a debate for the future. But one thing is sure, he got the surest way out of the misery of having to die as a bitter old man behind bars and I think he should be thankful for that. To start with.

70 years+ is no joke.

But hey, his daughter probably tried to play 'loyal' by opting to take 'daddy's' place... Guess you read that part, sir?

At the end, both daddy and daughter are dumbos.

Moral lesson:

Stay away from gangsterism and Cultism

Bad

Who killed him??


Why did they killed him


Where did they killed him


How did they killed him

What did they use to kill him??

They killed the guy. Either those he was desperate to run away from or those he was desperate to go after organised his murder.

He was 42 and serving a sentence of 72 years and 10 months. The Judge (or Jury) must be mathematicians to calculate a 72-year sentence to the nearest month

Omg he was safe in jail. He was sent up.

someone compare comments from the pictures and comments from nairalanders

Brazilian Cartels seem to be the most brutal. Before now I thought it was the Mexicans

You don't understand!

The daughter would later be released.
They can't keep her in prison for long.
At least not as long as the father would have stayed.

That's the plan!
