RIO DE JANEIRO: A Beretta pistol was stolen from a display at a major defence industry exhibition in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday shortly before Brazil's Vice President Hamilton Mourao and various senior politicians arrived at the venue.
Some 450 Brazilian and foreign brands, ranging from makers of sniper bullets and machine guns to bullet-proof vests and drones, are on display at the four-day exhibition where amateurs and professionals can see and handle the latest technology.Participants - including police officers, soldiers and gun club members - were required to leave their personal weapons and ammunition at the entrance before passing through security scanners that appeared to have been disabled.
