Baby in the Basement
"With great courage and sure of his convictions, Salomon Soria offers in this autobiographical account the most important and painful episode of his life: that of his kidnapping and torture in the basement of the National Intelligence Service of Peru, where he was conducted against his will after leading, following higher orders, the police strike of May 1987 in the city of Huancayo, Perú. In this stark history we will know aspects of the harsh police reality the time in which the police participated in the fight against the terrorism war in the 80s and 90s, as well as the multiple needs of this police institution in those years and the reasons for its protest struggle; However, the most important thing is the traumatic and painful personal experience of an unjust kidnapping, Salomón Soria details step by step the arbitrary and illegal way in which he was treated physically and psychologically injuring him by putting him at the edge of mental alienation during the confinement that clearly constitutes a violation of human rights and state terrorism within the framework of the first government of former president Alan Garcia. The corollary of this traumatic experience was exile. For more than 30 years the author lives in the United States of America where he had to rebuild his life with his family without forgetting the iniquity of the dark characters that caused that serious incision in the normal course of its existence. This book is somehow a clamor for the right claim of a person who has tried to be disgraced and see their rights restored despite the distance and the years. Is it that the dignity of the human being remains firm when it is known that one acts with rectitude and integrity.
You are invited to read this life story and know the reasonable demand of a man who will not rest until he finds justice from the Peruvian State"
