The Murder of Rodrigo Franco
For more than 13 years it was maintained that the killers of Rodrigo Franco were Senderistas. These, who always claimed responsibility for their attacks, this time remained silent. The attack was not, strictly speaking, in the Senderista style. Rodrigo Franco's killers called him by his name to get him to come out of the house. "Come out, Rodrigo, or we'll kill your children," they shouted while throwing an explosive at the house. Rodrigo gathered his young children and Cecilia in his bedroom and explained the situation. He said goodbye to her and to the little ones. He stepped outside and received 27 bullets from submachine guns.
