I have been working as photographer for many years around the world. I was born in Rome, but I live in Brazil, Rio de Janeiro, where I work as freelance for European and Brazilian media, both as journalist and photographer. In these last years I have started working also as video maker for some European TV channels.

Dirty, overcrowded and controlled by criminal organisations, these are the most dangerous jail cells in Sao Paulo.

These chilling images show the stark reality of what awaits England football fans if they misbehave during the World Cup.

Italian photographer Giuseppe Bizzarri captured everyday life inside Brazil's most infamous penitentiaries, describing them as "crime universities".

Football fans who fall foul of the police during the 4-week extravaganza have been warned they face spending time in the horrific conditions where violence and disease are widespread.
