about the present investigation, as a RESULT.: OPEN UP an investigation at the level of the Office of the Prosecution Service; […].82 100. On April 7, 2004, the Criminal Investigation Division of the Homicides Department of the National Police Force issued a report on the actions that had been taken, 83 indicating and concluding the following: B. Since Teresa DIAZ APARICIO was detained by the staff of DINCOTE PNP in March 1989, there is no information whatsoever, to date, that would suppose that she was intervened by the police or by personnel of the Armed Forces, nor was it possible to demonstrate that she is now dead, nevertheless because of the way she disappeared and moved away from her family, breaking off all contact with them, it is assumed, in view of her alleged links to the terrorist organization the Shining Path, that she went into hiding to join said insurgency group, and we cannot discard the possibility that she left the country and is now engaged in propaganda activities abroad but under a new identity. CONCLUSION: --- For the reasons indicated above, to date it has not been demonstrated that Teresa DIAZ APARICIO has been the victim of an alleged Forced Disappearance, nor has it been established that, in this case, members of the PNP or the Armed Forces are responsible for not having found the evidence proving the above; nevertheless, it cannot be ruled out that the above-mentioned person, in view of her alleged links to the Shining Path Terrorist Organization, is currently in hiding or abroad.84 101. On January 10, 2005, the Specialized Prosecution Service ordered additional proceedings, including summoning the next of kin of the alleged victim, persons who were detained with Teresa Díaz Aparicio in 1989, PNP Major Julio Hedilberto Quintana Cruz, who was the Head of the Detainee Monitoring Office in 1992, and teachers who were her co-workers at the UNSM.85 102. On October 25, 2007, in response to the request of the Second Supraprovincial Criminal Prosecution Service, the DIRCOTE/PNP, submitted a list of persons detained in the DIRCOTE-PNP and another list of police staff providing services in that institution in the months of July and August 1992. In the response, there is information that some of the pages of the ledgers of detainees were damaged because they were old. Regarding the police staff on active duty during the months being targeted, DIRCOTE/PNP submitted incomplete data indicating that: “in the inactive files of the present Office, there is no account whatsoever of said staff who provided services; it should be pointed out that, in some cases, PNP staff on active duty would only put their initials or their last name and rank […].”86 82 Annex 26.
