The human rights organizations, this Saturday night, “strongly” repudiated the repression of the Police of the City of Buenos Aires against the protesters in the surroundings of the house of Vice President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner.
“The Horacio Rodríguez Larreta’s decision to fence the area to avoid the continuity of the people’s demonstration that has been going on for several days, he did nothing more than increase the call in support of Cristina. As was done before, the response was repression,” the agencies said in a statement.
The text bears the signature of Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo, Mothers of Plaza de Mayo Founding Line; Relatives of the Disappeared and Detained for Political Reasons; SONS Capital; Permanent Assembly for Human Rights; Permanent Assembly for Human Rights La Matanza; Good Memory Association, Center for Legal and Social Studies; Memory, Truth and Justice North Zone Commission, Relatives and Companions of the 12 of the Holy Cross; Argentine Historical and Social Memory Foundation; Argentine League for Human Rights and the Ecumenical Movement for Human Rights.
“We once again express our deep concern about the mechanisms of persecution of the vice president and about repressive acts like those of today, which cannot be repeated. The people have the right to demonstrate and defend the ideas they choose in this democracy,” the entities stressed.
