VOICED : Gobierno de Perú prepara ley para incinerar cadáver del "Pol Pot de los Andes"

The video discusses the ongoing debate in Peru regarding the handling of Abimael Guzmán's remains, the leader of the guerrilla group Sendero Luminoso. After his death in prison, the government, led by President Pedro Castillo, is considering a new law to cremate his body, following requests from the right-wing majority in Congress. This move aims to prevent his burial site from becoming a shrine for his followers. Meanwhile, Guzmán's widow, Elena Iparraguirre, who is serving a life sentence, has requested the body for burial. Guzmán died at 86 from bilateral pneumonia in a high-security naval prison, where he had been serving a life sentence since 1992 for his role in a violent conflict in Latin America that resulted in 70,000 deaths, according to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
