Anthropologist Jaime Urrutia, director of the IER José María Arguedas and professor at the National University San Cristóbal de Huamanga (UNSCH), was kidnapped from his home by hooded soldiers. He was clandestinely detained in the Los Cabitos barracks for two weeks on charges of being linked to subversive groups. This kidnapping occurred in the context of the anti-subversive campaign led by General EP Clemente Noel Moral in Ayacucho. The case is part of a pattern of arbitrary detentions and disappearances that characterized military actions in the area during that period.
