The Associated Press: Best of 2014 from Latin America, Part 1/2

In this June 7, 2014 file photo, 17-year-old Miguel Chusqui grimaces in pain as he is lashed by a “rondero”, a member of a citizen vigilante group known as a “ronda urbana”, or urban patrol, in Cajamarca, Peru. Chusqui was sentenced to five lashes for stealing a laptop. Rondas only handle cases that authorities consider minor, settling property and debt disputes, family quarrels and marital infidelities. If a felony is committed, the rondas turn the transgressor over to police. The harshest sentence they administer, they say, is banishment. (Photo by Martin Mejia/AP Photo)
