Sorto was one of four anti-mining activists who were murdered while protesting the opening of the mine.

Aftermath In 2010, the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador reported on the arrest of eight suspects accused or the murder of Sorto and other murdered anti-mining activists. While the officials blamed the murder on a family feud, the National Roundtable Against Metallic Mining accused authorities of ignoring obvious links to the murder and Sorto's activism. The roundtable's criticism of the authorities included claims that the suspects were "former paid promoters of the Canadian mining company Pacific Rim".
