A
confrontation between teachers and teacher trainees against federal policemen
in Insurgentes avenue in Chilpancingo, Guerrero left a balance of eight
civilians and injured three agents yesterday.
The
facts have started coming in this morning when five federal policemen who
apparently were drunk beat two normalistas of Ayotzinapa that made preparations
for a concert where there would be a rock concert and in which they would have
several bands. The event called "a
light in the darkness", in which the group participate Panteon Rococo,
would be there to support the movement of Ayotzinapa.
On
having found out about the aggression against their partners, more young normalistas came to the place and detained the police officers.
Then,
approximately 300 federal police officers led by commander
"Spartacus" arrived to rescue the agents being held.
Teachers
of the State Coordinator of Education Workers of the State of Guerrero (CETEG)
and UNAM students mobilized on Avenida
Insurgentes and they initiated a
confrontation where civilians threw stones and the police used tear gas and
clubs. A subject in a pickup truck
plowed into a federal agent, who is hospitalized and in serious condition.
The
Feds arrested the driver of the pickup and
two teachers of the CETEG, who were beaten and robbed of their cell
phones.
The
'Espartaco' Commander negotiated with teachers for the delivery of three agents
who had been retained, then that he gave to them the driver of the truck and the two teachers.
Teachers
Elias Sanchez and Ramiro Leyva were beaten by the feds and are in serious
condition, indicated the leaders of the CETEG.
A reporter also was injured during the commotion.
A
professor charged that the federal police officers were drunk and began to
attack them while doing logistics work for the concert that would be the
afternoon of this Sunday.
After
the confrontation, participants of the festival "a light in the
darkness" reported that the event was suspended "due to the
provocation of the Federal Police to the population of the Rural Teacher of
Ayotzinapa". The concert would have
been in the vicinity of the monument to Nicolas Bravo, near the market Baltasar
R. Leyva, north of Chilpancingo.
UPDATE;
Solano Gutierrez was wounded by a bullet in the head during the attack committed by municipal police in Iguala and currently remains hospitalized in a clinic in Mexico City
UPDATE;
.It
adds that the incident left nearly 17 wounded, 'including two relatives of the
disappeared, normal students of Ayotzinapa, the CETEG teachers and students of
UNAM, denied them medical care by Chilpancingo Red Cross and they moved them to
other hospitals, and authorities removed their phones, purses and shoes'
Apparently
the Red Cross has the same attitude as the government about the
Normalistas.
The former coordinator of Health Services of Iguala, Angelica
Narvaez Perez, was fired from her job in retaliation because she gave
medical attention to normalistas Ayotzinapa that were injured during the
violent events of last September 26.
Her offense; she heeded
the call of her profession to provide humanitarian aid and worked late into the night
the day of the attack, serving Solano Aldo Edgar Gutiérrez and Andrés Vargas,
normalistas from Ayotzinapa and their families.

ReplyDelete4:51 "one or two elements giving the police crporation a bad name"
ReplyDeleteThat is a government line, the whole federal police corporation, the military and their drug trafficking paramilitary associates are all corrupt and rotten from head to toe, and they can not hide it anymore, like drunk murdering homos emilio cuayffet chemor and pena nieto...
Such brutalities must be dealt with severe actions against those federal policemen. Though hiring a good lawyer can avoid their name to be imprinted in criminal record. DUI conviction can hinder convict’s success in the near future and might affect their whole life. When I worked with DUI attorney Los Angeles I saw many cases where DUI completely destroyed someone’s life.
