On April 25, 1990, a Peruvian Army patrol composed of approximately 21 men, dressed as peasants, killed ten peasants in Ccashahui-Ranrapata, Chumbivilcas. The victims were: Balvino Huamaní Medina, Juan Huisa Pacco, Rosa Huisa Pacco, Rubén Alférez Triveño, Marcos Zacarías Huisa Llamoca, Quintín Alférez Cjuro, Telésforo Alférez Achinquipa, Marcos Torres Saihua, Julio Huamaní and José Huamaní Charccahuana. This action was part of an intelligence operation that lasted from April 19 to May 1, covering five districts in the provinces of Antabamba (Apurimac) and Chumbivilcas (Cuzco). The operation resulted in thirteen peasants killed and eight disappeared in total, in addition to several tortured detainees and raped peasant women. This case, known nationally as 'the Chumbivilcas case', was shelved by the authorities of the Public Prosecutor's Office because those responsible of the Peruvian Army were not fully identified.
