  1. Detention and Torture in Naranjitos, Bagua

    In 1992, a man was detained by the military in Naranjitos, Bagua, due to the assumption that all terrorists had beards. Despite being blindfolded and chained, he was beaten with rifle butts and shoes. This incident highlights the arbitrary detentions and racial prejudices prevalent during the conflict in Peru.
