It is confirmed 8 assassinations, 22 disappeared and more than 100 hurt are the results of Mexican police repression yesterday (19th June 2016) in Oaxaca.
According to the human rights observatory in Oaxaca, it is confirmed 8 assassinations, 20 arbitrarily arrested 22 disappeared and more than 100 hurt as result of Mexican Police repression yesterday in Oaxaca against protests of the people and teachers from Oaxaca who are protesting against de education reform of Enrique Peña Nieto’s government.
The Mexican government says federal police were not armed during attacks on Sunday in Nochixtlán, Oaxaca, however, images show the opposite.
These images remind us a lot of those on October 4th 2012 in the massacre of Alaska, when the Guatemalan Army assassinated 6 K’iche’s protesters from Totonicapán. The minister of defense, Lopez Bonilla, justified the massacre saying that the protesters were armed and had shot first. After it was obviously proven the contrary; it was the army who shot and then tries to blame the protesters. The same will occur in the Oaxaca case, they will try to blame the teachers of what happened. However the pictures are convincing.
From Red Tz´ikin (Network of independent Filmakers from Guatemala) express our definite condemn for the repression and express our solidarity to the teachers struggle and to the people of Oaxaca.
