Thousands of demonstrators marched through Peru's southern city of Juliaca on Thursday to commemorate the one-month anniversary of clashes that left 19 people dead in the city, the worst violence in over two months of anti-government protests.
Luis Zambrano, a priest who conducted a mass for family members on Wednesday, said that while protesters were sometimes violent, he believed authorities reacted with too much force.During Zambrano's mass, a display table with photos of those who died in the protests quickly overflowed and had to be rearranged as more family members arrived, with crowds spilling out of the church.
Nivardo Enriquez, the ombudsman, said his office was working with the local prosecutor to provide evidence, testimonies and autopsy reports.Dionisio Aroquipa told Reuters his 17-year-old daughter Jhamileth Nataly had been killed in the protests. Reuters was not able to immediately confirm the details of his account.
