Political police came to the house of an activist, telling him to erase the banner on his wall (We Are Freedom and Change). The activist refused to do so. As a result, the police beated his wife and father. Subsequently, they dragged him to an alley where he was beaten by Miguel Campo of the national police, who kicked him and broke his glasses needed to be able to see. The activist was then taken to the PNR of Vasquez, where he was threatened.
