“The Sumpul case is currently in the first instance court of Chalatenango, there it has been carried out with many obstacles but progress has been made in recent years in addressing all the evidence and elements so that it can advance… Impunity weighs on justice and continues despite the fact that it has never been brought to a hearing or a public hearing and the culprits of the Sumpul massacre have been condemned.”says Diaz.
Diaz mentioned that these cases should not be repeated again but we are experiencing similar events, the current government gives more military power to the army and they are committing serious violations against the population.
