Edith Lagos was a Peruvian terrorist who was a member of the terrorist group Shining Path (Template:Lang-es), one of the Communist Parties of Peru. Lagos was a prominent promoter of the group's agenda.

Lagos was born in Ayacucho to a wealthy family. She studied law at Universidad de San Martín de Porres in Lima before dropping out to join Shining Path[1][2]

In 1980, Lagos escaped the Ayacucho jail after a Shining Path detachment blew a hole in the jail wall. She spent the next two years promoting Shining Path and participating in their operations.

In 1982, Lagos was killed in Umaca, Peru, in a shootout with police and paramilitary forces.[3] She was buried in Ayacucho. It was estimated that up to 30,000 people attended the funeral. Lago's tomb was later bombed by the Rodrigo Franco Command.[4]
