Return of the Tsiriari Valley residents to their communities
Beginning in June 1991, many displaced people from the Tsiriari valley decided to return to their communities after interpreting the September 1990 confrontation in 'la Roca' as a defeat for the PCP-SL, which generated conditions perceived as safer for their return.
After the confrontation of September 25, 1990 in the area known as 'La Roca' between ronderos and PCP-SL, many displaced villagers from the Tsiriari valley interpreted this event as a defeat for the Shining Path. This perception of victory over the subversive group generated conditions that the villagers considered safer to return. Beginning in June 1991, many of the displaced decided to return to their respective communities in the Tsiriari valley. This return took place before the official return process promoted by the government and the Armed Forces, which would begin only in September 1994.
