Resumo: The present thesis aims to analyze the performance of the extermination group “Kombão of the death” that operated in the city of Uberlândia-MG between the years of 1980 and 1990. His practice showed that the violence of the State made use of this group as a way to perpetuate its repression against ordinary people, demystifying the idea that the state was limited to social sanitation. Death squads, like the one analyzed, integrated the repressive system with their own mode of action, meeting the aspirations of the bourgeois hegemonic segments represented by the State, whose agents received political protection for the fulfillment of their "social function" in those years that ended a long period dictatorship and the beginning of a process of political re-democratization. The main source of research for this study are the interviews given by four military police officers who composed the referred group of extermination — also denominated, in this thesis, by "squadron of the death" — composed at that time by seven military policemen. Besides this source, we also use the documentation found in local newspapers and those of great circulation, in addition to bibliographical reviews
