On September 26, 1973, Juan Arturo CERON BARROS, 32 years old, a street vendor, was executed.

The victim arrived that same day at the La Pincoya neighborhood, the location from which the trucks he worked with departed, and was detained during a raid being carried out by military personnel and carabineros in the aforementioned neighborhood.

Subsequently, his body was found in Portezuelos, in the commune of Quilicura. The autopsy report states that the cause of death was the "set of gunshot wounds with projectile exit in the skull, thorax, and limbs, hemorrhage, and acute anemia.

The trajectory of the gunshot wound in the upper middle third of the left arm is from back to front, left to right, and top to bottom." The date of death is the same date of the detention already indicated.

Having established the detention by military personnel and taking into account the date and cause of death, the Commission has reached the conviction that Juan Arturo Cerón Barros was executed outside of any legal process, constituting a violation of human rights attributable to the actions of State agents.
