Sexual violations at Uchiza Military Base

During 1989, multiple cases of sexual violence against women were recorded at the Uchiza Military Base. Testimonies documented by the CVR indicate that the rapes were part of a pattern of abuses committed by the military in the area. The context of military control in Uchiza implied restrictions of mobility and situations of vulnerability for the civilian population, especially for women. The cases are documented in several testimonies collected by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
