Prosecution accusation against seventeen farmers of Uchuraccay
The Public Prosecutor's Office formally charged seventeen peasants from Uchuraccay for the multiple homicide of eight journalists, requesting 25 years in prison. Only three of the accused were detained, while fourteen remained in custody.
On August 14, 1984, the Public Prosecutor's Office filed the indictment against seventeen peasants from Uchuraccay accused of the massacre of journalists that occurred on January 26, 1983. The prosecution requested a minimum prison sentence of 25 years for the crime of multiple homicide. Of the seventeen defendants, only three were detained: Dionisio Morales Pérez, Mariano Ccasani Gonzáles and Simeón Auccatoma Quispe. The remaining fourteen peasants were never captured and the requisition order against them remained in force, although most of them died due to the reprisals suffered by the community after January 26, 1983.
