Where Are the Killers of Jaime Ayala?
After twenty-two long years of legal maneuvering and even the alleged kidnapping of the main defendant, Army Captain Álvaro Artaza Adrianzén, alias "Comandante Camión," the forced disappearance of journalist Jaime Ayala remains in the shadows while a cloak of execrable impunity protects his executioners. But the spilled blood of this martyr of journalism was never forgotten. The human rights prosecutor of Ayacucho, Cristina Olazábal, formally filed criminal charges against members of the armed forces who served in the province of Huanta in August 1984, meaning the case must now enter the long-awaited stage of judicial investigation.
