*1. PANAMA: PARAMILITARIES MURDER KUNA LEADERS


On Jan. 18, rightwing paramilitaries from the United Self-Defense
Forces of Colombia (AUC) crossed the border into Panama and
murdered four indigenous Kuna leaders in the communities of Paya
and Pucuro. Paya chief Ernesto Ayala, second chief San Pascual
Ayala and commissary Luis Enrique Martinez were taken outside the
community, hacked with machetes and executed with shots to the
head. Community members were unable to recover the bodies because
the paramilitaries mined the area, according to local resident
Luis Caicedo.
