23 72(10) During the violent years, “quechua-speaking peasants” were at a crossfire, between the public forces and the terrorist groups, since they “did not have any civil rights.”25 72(11) The death of quechua speakers was not noticed by Peruvian public opinion, due to the discrimination that they had suffered, among other things, due to their ethnic origin and their financial standing.26 72(12) The CVR received multiple complaints reporting the discrimination by the members of the armed forces against indigenous people and peasants that resided in the conflictive areas. In several rural mountain areas of Ayacucho, Apurímac, Junín and Huancavelica, the abuses by the armed forces were driven by a profound racial and ethnical hatred.27 72(13) The Peruvian armed forces took control over the Department of Ayacucho on December 29, 1982. In 1985, a military base was established in Accomarca, Province of Vilcashuamán, Department of Ayacucho. Those responsible for such base imposed on all Appendixed villages and communities in the area the “obligation” to monthly provide animals and other supplies to feed the soldiers stationed there. This “obligation” had not been fulfilled during the month prior to the occurrence of the events. c) Arrest and subsequent execution of Mr. Bernabé Baldeón-García 72(14) Mr. Bernabé Baldeón-García was born in 1992, in the community of Pucapaccana Lambrasniyocc, District of Independencia, Province of Vilcashuamán, Department of Ayacucho, where he resided, together with his family, until September 25, 1990. Agriculture was his sole means of livelihood. 72(15) At the time of the events, Mr. Bernabé Baldeón-García was 68 years of age. 72(16) On September 25, 1990, as part of a counterinsurgency operation in the Department of Ayacucho, soldiers from Accomarca Military Base arrived at Pucapaccana. 72(17) When they arrived at the above-mentioned rural community, the soldiers fired shots into the air, gathered the community at the main square and forced them to hand over rams and other supplies. At that moment, one of the officers in charge, holding a list in his hands, called the name of Eustaquio Baldeón, but as he was not there, the officer proceeded to call and arrest some of his next of kin: Bernabé Baldeón-García, Santos Baldeón-Palacios and Jesús Baldeón-Zapata, among others. 25 Cf.
