Testimony collected by the CVR in September 2002 in Lima, where the declarant narrates his experience of imprisonment in Chiclayo. This testimony is part of the cases analyzed on imprisonment and detentions during the internal armed conflict. Detentions became a way of terrorizing the population, meaning not only the restriction of personal freedom, but also the possibility of being victims of mistreatment and torture. During detentions, rights violations were difficult to report or denounce because there were no authorities to turn to.
