Hello, my name is Jorge Luis. I suffered greatly during the violence, despite being a dignified and hardworking person. One day, they held a meeting, calling about seven people. Among them, they mentioned my name with a firm and rough voice, saying ‘JORGE LUIS, STEP FORWARD!’ I obeyed, and suddenly, I fell to the ground, and within seconds, I was gone. I died without knowing the reason why I was killed. I was always an honest person. I just hope that no one else has to go through what I went through.
