Presentation of report on prison massacre
On December 1, 1987, the investigative commission presents its report on the June 1986 prison massacre, pointing the finger of political responsibility at President Alan Garcia Perez, the Alva Castro cabinet and the Joint Command of the Armed Forces. However, the Congress subsequently approves a majority opinion that excludes the head of state and the cabinet from responsibility.
The commission investigating the case of the prisons presents its report, signed by its six members. The report points out the President of the Republic, the Alva Castro ministerial cabinet and the Joint Command of the Armed Forces as those politically responsible for the massacre of the prisons that took place in June 1986. On December 5, the board of directors of the Congress reported on two reports issued by the investigative commission: one in the majority with seven signatures and the other in the minority with six signatures. Subsequently, Congress approved the majority report of the investigative commission, which excluded the head of state and the ministerial cabinet from any political responsibility for the massacre.
