Table 3.5.4.7:

Tabulation of numbers of human rights violations, by combinations of perpetrators and types of violation

Table 3.5.4.7 is "Tabulation of Numbers of Human Rights Violations, by Combinations of Perpetrators and Types of Violations, Presented to the UN Truth Commission for El Salvador by the Human Rights Commission of El Salvador (non-governmental), November, 1992." The codes for the perpetrators in this table are the following:

   E.M. - death squads
   FFAA - Armed Forces of El Salvador
   FMLN - Frente Farabundo Mart’ para la Liberaci—n National
   dscd - unknown
   ejhn - Honduran Army

Note that this table includes the combinations of units which committed violations. For example, there were 114 arbitrary executions alleged to have been committed by the Salvadoran Armed Forces acting in combination with death squads. Given this table, one can argue that in this data, either acting alone or in combination with other forces, the Armed Forces of El Salvador were responsible for approximately 82 percent of the arbitrary executions reported in interviews conducted by the CDHES.
