segundo-cacique

Portuguese to English Social Sciences Anthropology Indigenous studies
Qual seria a tradução mais apropriada pela frase seguinte:

O segundo-cacique já sofreu ameaças e um violento atentado.

O texto cita grupos indígenas específicos, e gostaria de saber se está denominando uma hierarquia ou uma sequência cronológica de líderes [chiefs ou chieftains]. A orientação do texto é para o leigo.

Agradeço qualquer ajuda!
Proposed translations (English)

Holly Holmes (asker) Jul 27, 2015:
Source suggests both answers are valid Cites vice-cacique and segundo-cacique as interchangable:

*1. PANAMA: PARAMILITARIES MURDER KUNA LEADERS


On Jan. 18, rightwing paramilitaries from the United Self-Defense
Forces of Colombia (AUC) crossed the border into Panama and
murdered four indigenous Kuna leaders in the communities of Paya
and Pucuro. Paya chief Ernesto Ayala, second chief San Pascual
Ayala and commissary Luis Enrique Martinez were taken outside the
community, hacked with machetes and executed with shots to the
head. Community members were unable to recover the bodies because
the paramilitaries mined the area, according to local resident
Luis Caicedo.
