The Shining Path guerrillas have controlled two cellblocks in Peru's Canto Grande prison for nearly six years. Last week police blew a hole in the cellblock roof, then used tear gas to flush rebels out; at least two policemen and 11 guerrillas were killed. President Alberto Fujimori decreed mandatory 25- to 30-year jail sentences for anyone convicted of involvement in rebel assassination squads.
