Seizure of Dos de Mayo and death of residents

On June 19, 1992, subversives took over the town of Dos de Mayo in the district of Mazamari, province of Satipo. During this incursion, the subversives killed 7 villagers. This attack took place in the context of the intense activity of the PCP-SL in the province of Satipo during 1992, a year that registered the highest number of detainees-disappeared in the whole country. The event occurred in an area where previously, in January 1992, an MRTA camp located near the village had been destroyed by the army.
