Ixil people
The Ixil are a Maya people indigenous to Guatemala. The Ixil live in three municipalities in the Cuchumatanes mountains in the northern part of the department El Quiché. These municipalities, also known as the Ixil Triangle, are Santa Maria Nebaj, San Gaspar Chajul, and San Juan Cotzal.
In the early eighties, the Ixil Community was one of the principal targets of a genocide operation, involving systematic rape, forced displacements and hunger during the Guatemalan civil war. In May 2013 Efraín Ríos Montt was found guilty by a Guatemala court of having ordered the deaths of 1,771 Ixil people. The presiding judge, Jazmin Barrios, declared that "The Ixils were considered public enemies of the state and were also victims of racism, considered an inferior race'.〔('Guatemala's Rios-Montt found guilty of genocide,' ) at BBC News. 11 May 2013〕 According to a 1999 United Nations truth commission, between 70 and 90% of Ixil villages were razed and 60% of the population in the ''altiplano'' region were forced to flee to the mountains between 1982 and 1983. By 1996, it was estimated that some 7,000 Maya Ixil had been killed.〔Laura Myers, ('View from Chajul: The Rios Montt Genocide Trial,' ) at The Globalist, 15 May 2013.〕 The violence was particularly heightened during the period 1979–1985 as successive Guatemalan administrations and the military pursued an indiscriminate scorched-earth (in (スペイン語:tierra arrasada)) policy.〔See the section ("Agudización de la violencia y militarización del Estado (1979-1985)" ) of CEH's report (CEH 1999, ch. 1). In particular, see para. 361, which records of the Guatemalan governments at the time that ''""''〕
In 2013, General Efraín Ríos Montt, who served as President of Guatemala from 1982 to 1983, was found guilty of genocide against the Ixil people.
