Terceiro Comando
Terceiro Comando is a Brazilian criminal organization engaged in drug trafficking in Rio de Janeiro. It was founded in the early 1980s and is a break-away faction of the Comando Vermelho.
The Terceiro Comando has fought several small-scale conflicts with the rival gang Comando Vermelho.
The organization has no sole leader and is instead a horizontal reciprocity based network that helps member-gangs in different favelas as they attempt to acquire drugs and guns.
