The guiding principle was to <strong>enhance coordination between the civil and military police<\/strong>, making their actions more efficient and strategic.<\/p>\n<p>ADPF 635 altered the logic of public security in the state, replacing the principle of <strong>ostentation<\/strong> with that of <strong>exceptionality<\/strong>. As Victor C\u00e9sar Santos, Secretary of Public Security of Rio, emphasized, the focus should be on <strong>weakening the economic structures of criminal factions<\/strong> that control the favelas. Publicly, Santos also argued that operations aim to \u201c<strong>prevent bloodshed<\/strong>\u201d and \u201csave lives,\u201d countering criticism that they always result in higher lethality.<\/p>\n<p>In Rocinha, for instance, a community of over 80,000 residents, drug trafficking is not the primary source of income. The <strong>parallel economy revolves around the monopoly these factions exercise over essential services such as electricity, gas, water, and internet.<\/strong> These activities generate far greater profits than drug trafficking, which carries high risks and costs (import, transport, packaging, sale). This underground flow of capital is entirely outside state control.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, ADPF 635 seeks to promote more <strong>strategic, surgical operations<\/strong>, directly targeting the revenue streams of criminal organizations. Previous \u201coccupation\u201d operations might temporarily disrupt drug trade but had no effect on these more stable and lucrative sources of income.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-mgb7kiqn-f821e2940e78c0a3a184972a8c6a370c '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The implementation of the measure has sparked debate.
