Killing in the prisons in 1986
After 1986 prison massacre, Guzman's portrait appears in La Cantuta dining room symbolizing PCP-SL rule
The 1986 prison massacre had a symbolic impact on the National University of Education. Shortly after these events, the portrait of Abimael Guzmán was drawn on the walls of the university dining hall at La Cantuta, symbolically representing the PCP-SL's domination of the university. This marked a turning point in the visible presence of the PCP-SL on the university campus.
