Néstor Paz Zamora Commission

The Nestor Paz Zamora Commission (Spanish: Comision Nestor Paz Zamora, CNPZ) was a militant Bolivian Marxist–Leninist organization which first appeared in October 1990. It is named after the deceased brother of former president Jaime Paz Zamora.[1]

The group first gained international attention following an attack on the marine guardhouse at the United States embassy.[2]
