Reports of abuses by military or
paramilitary forces against opposition political groups during the
last two years of the Rodrigo Borja administration and the first
months of the Sixto Dur n government could not be found among the
sources currently available to the DIRB.
Information on disturbances that resulted
in injuries and at least one death among protestors as a result of
police anti-riot intervention has been reported, particularly
during the first months of Dur n's government, when a series of
strikes and demonstrations against drastic economic measures took
place. Information on these events can be provided upon further
request.
