Mail arrives in Rio 'drug favela'

Paramilitary police personnel with motorcycles stand guard on a street at Rocinha shantytown on Dec 14 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. After the pacification of the shantytown, retaken from drug traffickers' gangs barely one month ago, Rio's municipality has begun regularizing the neighborhood, naming the streets and numbering the buildings, allowing its inhabitants to be reached by the post.
