101 f) in the days after the operative called “Transfer 1” and until May 22, 1992, included, the inmates listed in the petition were obliged to remain face down in the courtyards known as “no man’s land” and “admission”, without being supplied enough water and food, or without being allowed to change their clothes, or offered blankets to cover themselves, or a mattress where to lie down. The aforementioned, despite the fact that many of the inmates had been injured during the assault; g) in its final written arguments it indicated that the injured inmates that were transferred to health centers received new mistreatments on the way to said establishments, as well as new intents of an extra-legal execution. They were submitted to inadequate and morally degrading sanitary conditions, which is especially serious in the case of the women.

Additionally, these aggressions act as a tactic to humiliate, terrify, destroy, and injure the “enemy”, the family or the community to which the victim belongs; “Lack of medical assistance to the inmates that were injured” j) after the surrender of the inmates, between May 10 and 22, 1992, around 160 inmates that were injured during the execution of the operative “Transfer 1” and that had been submitted by the forces of Peruvian security, did not receive an adequate and timely medical assistance which caused their injuries to become more serious, and in some cases resulted in permanent physical consequences;
