-91. José Fernando Serrano Cruz, the alleged victims’ brother He is the son of María Victoria Cruz Franco and Dionisio Serrano Morales, both of whom are deceased; he has eight living siblings and had four more siblings who have died. He is 31 years old; he is a radio operator and he is blind. His sisters, Ernestina and Erlinda, were born in Santa Anita canton, San Antonio de La Cruz jurisdiction, Chalatenango Department, and were registered and baptized. Ernestina was thin, dark-skinned, and had black hair. Erlinda was plump, with pale skin and blond hair. The witness referred to the military operation carried out in May 1982 as “the most extensive that took place at the time.” He also referred to what happened to his family when they fled from their home to protect themselves, particularly what happened to his sisters, Ernestina and Erlinda. Owing to this operation, on May 28, 1982, the witness and his family moved from Santa Anita to Los Amates canton, San Isidro Labrador jurisdiction. While there, they heard shots and the soldiers coming closer, so they decided to return to Santa Anita. They traveled to Los Alvarenga canton, Nueva Trinidad. Since dawn was approaching, they decided to hide in the woods so that the soldiers would not see them. It was then that the Serrano Cruz family separated. The witness, his mother and his sister, Rosa, managed to reach Los Conacaste canton, where they asked “other people […] about the other members of the family,” and they were told that the witness’s father, his siblings José Enrique, Erlinda, Ernestina, Suyapa and the latter’s son, had last been seen in Los Alvarenga canton. Approximately, one month later, the witness’s family, with the exception of Ernestina and Erlinda, was reunited. The witness’s mother asked her husband about the girls, and he “decided not to say that [Ernestina and Erlinda] had disappeared, which suggested that they were dead.” However, subsequently, Enrique, the witness’s brother, told his mother that Ernestina and Erlinda “were not dead, but that the soldiers “had taken them” when Suyapa was taking care of them while he and his father were looking for water for the girls. The witness’s family was profoundly affected emotionally, especially his mother; she began to suffer from a variety of illnesses and was constantly crying and having nightmares. In 1985, there was a very violent military operation during which the witness’s father and a nephew died. The witness’s mother was able to submit the case to the Asociación Pro-Búsqueda and the Public Prosecutor’s office. The complaint before the Public Prosecutor’s office did not accomplish anything; there was no response from the State. The witness asked that “justice should be done, because, to date, there has been no response from the Government to clarify his sisters’ case.” 2.
