Six farmers shot dead over land rights battle in Peru | Environment | The Guardian: [
Dan Collyns in Lima] “It was a night-time ambush. They bound them by their hands and feet, then they killed them and threw them in a river,” Robert Guimaraes, president of the local indigenous federation Feconau, told the Guardian by phone.
The police report says most of the men had shotgun wounds to the neck and at least one was found bound by the hands and feet.
An eyewitness told the police the victims were attacked by up to 40 armed men who had their faces covered.
“We have received death threats from the same land trafficking gang,” Guimaraes said. “We are afraid for our families and we are asking the state for protection.”
