I agree. And I have not found any new in the media about this incident, who seems to be not a little one (if it's true or not exaggerated), since they were surrounded by at least 40 of the men, women, and children of the village trying to kill them

There have been some sad news this week about missing tourists in the mountains, and one of them fell from the cliff near Inti Punku, at the end of the Inca Trail, dying. But nothing about this incident. Hard to believe it's true.

Besides it's hard to believe the leader is called the Presidente. That reminds me the old terrorist movement. There are still some groups within Peru but the zone where they are is far from Cusco touristic places. Anyway, if I found any reliable source about this episode I'll comment it. Always useful to take care and know about security situation in any place, either Cusco, Times Square, Agra, Buenos Aires or the Nile river. Things may happen everywhere.
