A bomb attack scheduled during the Lady Gaga concert on Copacabana beach in Rio de Janeiro, which attracted about 2.1 million people prevented Brazilian police as she said.

The plan was organized by a group promoting rhetoric of hatred aimed at radicalization of adolescents, including self -injury and violent content as a form of social integration, according to Rio de Janeiro, who worked with the Ministry of Justice.

“The suspects recruited participants, including minors, to carry out coordinated attacks using improvised explosives and Molotov cocktails,” police said.

The Ministry of Justice said that those who recruited themselves were identified as Gaga fans, known as “small monsters”.

The operation was based on a report by the Ministry of Cyber ​​Business Laboratory after information from the Rio State Police, which revealed people on the internet who encouraged violent behavior between adolescents using coded language and extremist symbolism.
