PMA agent was hit.77 The evidence in the case file is not clear as to whether it was the said agent or his companions who then fired on the people gathered there, resulting in the deaths of six of them,78 while another person was wounded and taken to the hospital in Cobán, Alta Verapaz, where he subsequently died.79 The seven persons executed were community leaders and representatives.80 69. Following this massacre, Valeriano Osorio Chen and Evaristo Osorio, two leaders of the Río Negro community committee that was negotiating the resettlement with INDE, were summoned to a meeting to be held on July 8, 1980, at the offices of the said State entity in “Chinatzul, […] between Santa Cruz and San Cristóbal Verapaz.” They were instructed to bring with them the books containing the agreements signed and the commitments made by INDE.81 The two community leaders left that day to go to the INDE meeting. However, 77 The testimonies in the case file differ as to whether the members of the Río Negro community assembled in front of the chapel on their own initiative or whether they were summoned by the said State agents.
