pacapacapá Atenco: people nicked by Ulysses

Greetings bloggers!
I present the story I did for writing workshop 3 on the events of San Salvador de Atenco, Mexico. Clarified that this is a point of view about an event that has as many shades as letters are in the DRAE. It was a simple matter to understand, but I think it could well reflect what happened. You can see more images in the blog Radio Sabotage.

The small town of San Salvador de Atenco, east of Mexico, convulsed during days three and four May 2006. What began as a protest organized by the Peoples' Front in Defense of Earth not to evict eight local flower market in Texcoco, became a brutal onslaught of the state police against the protesters. As a result, nearly 200 people were beaten and then imprisoned illegally. Although almost all are free, two years after 19 people still in prison.

is Friday, January 25, 2008, and Forests Mariana Gomez goes out the door of the prison of Molino de las Flores after a year and eight months imprisonment. Thanks to an attorney who worked pro bono for the prisoners of Atenco, by way of protection crimes were acquitted him of kidnapping and attacks on the roads. Breathing the fresh air outside, it is clear that Mariana is not the same as when he first arrived at the prison. The week of May, she was raped, beaten and arrested without letting you know the charges attributed to him. And is not unique. In

Santiaguito prison in Almoloya, one of the prisoners tells (in testimony to the CCIODH # 181) who came to Atenco on the second day of the revolt to work with people who had been battered. In the early hours of the morning, screams and gunshots broke the silence typical small town, and fresh air is replaced by dense smoke from tear gas. "We began to see that much gas in the atmosphere, which is suffocating, that one can not breathe. That's when I am seized with a series of punches, kicking, with homer .... "

statements continue to reveal more humiliation and when begins to describe the attempted rape, the interviewers did not stop to cause more emotional damage to relive the situation. The prisoner did not want his name.

Another female prisoners in Santiaguito describes how just a month after his arrest. Also remains anonymous. "Well obviously I am depressed, right? But also very angry because this is unfair, these beatings and everything that happened I think is not fair. (...) The process has been rigged because they violated our rights from the beginning. "

also testified procedural irregularities: the arrest without a warrant, the lead directly to penalties without going to the Public Ministry and not granted the right to speak with an attorney. A third prison

expressed in the statements to the International Civil Commission for the Observation of Human Rights that his capture is a product of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, as is assistant to his father, a doctor, when you home visits. "That day we were going to come just when Atenco I was arrested. We could not even enter (...) we stopped about 50 policemen. I never got the same strength but I was beaten. "

The wild product wounds suffered beatings and outrage were not answered, denying a basic human right. "When we wanted to gynecological care and complain about how we were hurt we were not allowed. It was denied care. "

comments in some blogs is that the violence that broke out on 3 and 4 May 2006 was not unilateral, as the activists of the Peoples Front in Defense of Earth caused with stones and verbal insults to officials state police. Even if this were true, the police response was brutal and disproportionate. Matches in the testimonies reveal that women were raped and beaten, like men. Many of the prisoners were released, but the marks of six months, one year or average year in prison is not easily erased. Nineteen people today see the sunrise through thick bars, all for defending the right of a few to sell their flowers alone.
