Een12 jarige Mexicaanse jongen werd op 19-07-2015 gedood door de autoriteiten.
Het zoveelste slachtoffer van deze staat/maffia.
De Zapatista's vragen om internationale steun en aandacht.
Op 19 Juli deed de federale Mexicaanse politie met behulp van het leger een inval in het dorp Santa Maria Ostula.
Dit om de lokale bevolking/gemeente angst aan te jagen met mede als doel dat bedrijven (zoals het mijnbedrijf Ternium) deze grond kan verkrijgen en exploiteren.
De Mexicaanse staat werkt samen met para-militaire groepen en maffia organisaties om te bevolking te dwingen hun land en vrijheid af te staan.
Bij deze inval werd de 12 jarige jongen Edilberto Reyes Garcia doodgeschoten (in het gezicht!) en verschillende bewoners mishandeld en meegenomen, zoals de lokale dorps agent, enkele jongeren en bejaarden.
De Zapatista's in Mexico vragen om internationale aandacht en solidariteit.
Om jullie steun en om jullie stem te verheffen, dit nieuws bekend te maken en te verspreiden in de onafhankelijke media.
(Want de Nederlandse staat en pers zwijgen 'dood')
De genocide tegen de vooral indiaanse en boeren bevolking in Mexico gaat dagelijks door.
Dit enorm trieste voorval is geen uitzondering.
Joint CNI and EZLN-CG communiqué on the attack by federal forces against the indigenous community of Santa María Ostula
To the Nahua Indigenous Community of Santa María Ostula, Aquila, Michoacán:
To the National and International Sixth:
To the people of Mexico and the World:
July 21, 2015
Given the violent events perpetrated against the indigenous community of Santa María Ostula on July 19, 2015, by a large commando made up of members of the Federal Preventative Police, the Secretary of National Defense, and the Secretary of the Navy in which Ostula community police commander Cemeí Verdía Zepeda was detained, in which federal soldiers murdered, WITH A BULLET TO THE FACE, THE 12-YEAR-OLD CHILD EDILBERTO REYES GARCÍA, and in which the following people were injured: the child Yeimi Nataly Pineda Reyes, 6-years-old; Edith Balbino Vera; Delfino Antonio Alejo Ramos, 17-years-old; Horacio Valladares Manuel, 32-years-old; José Nicodemos Macías Zambrano, 21-years-old; and Melesio Cristino Dirzio, 60-years-old…
WE DENOUNCE:
The criminal behavior of the above listed military and police bodies and their complicity with organized crime, in this case the Knights Templar, enacted in order to escalate the war of conquest that has been waged for years now against the Nahua indigenous community of Santa María Ostula. The goal of this war of conquest is to occupy the community’s territories in favor of mining and transnational tourist interests, and to punish this community for having dared to take back the land from which they had been displaced and for having defended themselves—by putting into practice their right to live—from organized crime, which today serves as the paramilitary branch of the Mexican State.
The motive for these criminal acts is none other than to advance of the war of capitalist conquest against Ostula and against the originary peoples and indigenous and non-indigenous communities in this country.
Given this, WE DEMAND:
1. THE IMMEDIATE AND UNCONDITIONAL FREEDOM OF COMMANDER CEMEÍ VERDÍA ZEPEDA, AND THAT ALL CHARGES AGAINST HIM BE DROPPED.
2. THE PUNISHMENT OF THE AUTHORITIES AND MEMBERS OF MILITARY AND POLICE BODIES WHO MURDERED THE CHILD EDILBERTO REYES GARCÍA AND BEAT AND INJURED VARIOUS OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF OSTULA.
3. Respect for Santa María Ostula’s community lands which foreign mining companies like Ternium—with the support of the bad government in collusion with organized crime—intend to take over, dispossessing the community.
4. The reappearance, alive and well, of the 6 disappeared community members, and the punishment of the intellectual and material authors of the murders of the 33 Ostula community members who have been killed over the last four years in their struggle to defend their land and freedoms.
5. Respect for and guarantee of the continued functioning of the community police of the indigenous community of Santa María Ostula.
Finally, we call upon the international community and the brothers and sisters of the national and international Sixth to stay alert to any happenings that may occur in the territory of the Indigenous Community of Santa María Ostula, joining in solidarity with their struggle and their demands.
Attentively,
July 2015
