Abstract

Names Unknown Gay and Transgender People | Murdered | 1980s The giant Lupuna Blanca tree in Parque La Lupuna can be seen from miles away. There, at its base, the communist militant group Sendero Luminoso (Shining Path) would pile the bodies of gay and transgender people who had fallen victim to their mission of “social cleansing.” Reports also suggested Sendero Luminoso’s use of smaller surrounding trees to hang victims. Parque La Lupuna, Yarinacocha, Pucallpa, Peru

A gigantesca árvore de Lupuna Blanca no Parque La Lupuna se vê a quilômetros de distância. Ali, em sua base, o grupo militante comunista Sendero Luminoso acumulava os corpos de pessoas gays e transgênero que tinham sido vítimas de sua missão de “limpeza social”. Foi informado também que Sendero Luminoso utilizava árvores de menor altura que estavam nas proximidades para pendurar as vítimas.Parque La Lupuna, Yarinacocha, Pucallpa, Peru.
