During the transfer of PCP-SL members from the Canto Grande prison to the Chorrillos prison, a confrontation took place that left 35 people dead. This event occurred in the context of the VI Military Plan of the PCP-SL called 'Building the Conquest of Power', which had begun in March 1992.

The incident occurred at a time of high political tension, barely a month after the self-coup of April 5, 1992.
