Human Rights Groups are dismayed, as are relatives, at the thousands that have been arbitrarily arrested. Peace may have come to el salvador, but at what price . Teacher audelia has lived here since the late 1990s la campanera in the capitals notorious soyapango district. More than 20 years ago, rival gangs the ms 13 and the 18th Street Gang took control of neighbourhoods across the country. They became, in effect, no go areas for outsiders and the police. Thousands were murdered or caught in the crossfire. And in those years of the growth of the gangs, can you explain to us what it was like living here . But in the last 12 months, audelia has witnessed the change on these streets that she never thought possible. For the past year, el salvador has been living under an Emergency Measure called the state of exception.
