Massacre of eight journalists in Uchuraccay
Massacre of eight journalists in Uchuraccay attracted national attention
On January 26, 1983, eight journalists were massacred in the community of Uchuraccay. This event was paradigmatic because it marked the moment when many sectors of the country, which had been practically indifferent to the tragedy that had been occurring since May 1980, began to pay attention to the violence when it reached those who were considered full citizens.
