Investigation Report

One of the shot protesters died at the scene, while the second was pronounced dead at a local hospital, AFP said. The violence came during the third week of protests over a huge mining contract that allows Canada-based First Quantum Minerals to operate the region’s largest open-pit copper mine for at least 20 more years. Road closures have caused up to $80 million in daily losses to businesses and closed schools across the country for more than a week. Panamanian President Laurentino Cortizo sent his condolences to the families of the dead protesters, saying that such a crime “has no place” in the supportive society of his nation. The deadly shooting came after Panamanian media reported that a protester was run over and killed last week by a foreigner who was trying to pass a roadblock. The 19,000-mile Pan American Highway is the longest highway in the world, stretching from Alaska to Argentina with a break at the Darien Gap.
