Attack on high voltage pylons in Angaraes
Attack against high tension towers that left the province of Angaraes without electricity in December 1980, as part of the first actions of the PCP-Sendero Luminoso in the area.
A month after the Shining Path raid that frustrated the municipal elections in the community of Anchonga at the end of 1980, an attack was carried out against the high tension towers that left the province of Angaraes in darkness. This attack was part of the first actions of the PCP-Sendero Luminoso in the province of Angaraes. The attack on electrical infrastructure was one of the initial tactics used by the subversive group to demonstrate its presence and operational capacity in the area.
