According to firefighter Major Aldo Silva, the victim was not in deep water when he was attacked.

Silva explained: “Melo was swimming near the surf line, which would have been at least waist deep if he stood up, when he was bitten several times by the shark.

“He was probably bitten first on his legs then when he tried to defend himself, the shark reacted to his frantic movements and latched onto his arms.”

The area where the tourist was swimming is marked by warning signs signaling the dangers of attacks.

It is believed the species of shark responsible for the attack could be a bull shark or tiger shark, with both known to prowl close to the water’s edge.

“The victim was conscious when he was rescued,” lifeguard Wellington Miranda told Diario de Pernambuco.

“He was in a state of shock, in a lot of pain and had suffered severe lacerations to his arms and deep wounds to his legs.

“We managed to stem the bleeding and stabilize his vital signs before flying by helicopter him to hospital.”

More than 110 warning signs have been installed on popular resort stretches along the Pernambuco State coastline where incidents with sharks have occurred.

The last fatality in the tropical region, which boasts warm waters and beautiful beaches, was in 2013 when 18-year-old Bruna Gobbi suffered gruesome injuries to her left leg.

The teenager was vacationing with her family on Boa Viagem Beach and paddling in shallow waters off the coast.

She was dragged by strong currents into deeper waters and attacked in the undertow.

Since 1992, 24 people have died of shark attacks, with over 60 registered incidents in the region. This week, representatives from many nations will gather at the annual meeting of the United Nations Commission on Narcotic Drugs in Vienna to determine the appropriate course of the international response to illicit drugs. Delegates will debate multiple resolutions while ignoring a truth that goes to the core of current drug policy: human rights abuses in the war on drugs are widespread and systematic.

Consider these numbers: Hundreds of thousands of people locked in detention centers and subject to violent punishments. Millions imprisoned. Hundreds hanged, shot or beheaded. Tens of thousands killed by government forces and non-state actors. Thousands beaten and abused to extract information, and abused in government or private
