The invaders of the Kim property violently removed the commission of councilors, assembly members and the Governor’s office that arrived in the area, around noon this Friday.
Councilor Lola Terrazas recorded the moment they fled to avoid being hit by the stones thrown by the people who have been illegally occupying these lands since October 22, 2022.
“In the end they began to attack us, we managed to get out. We are unharmed. A high risk operation. The journalists have accompanied us “, commented the mayor who made a live broadcast from her social networks.
“They are going to receive us with bullets”
“Unfortunately they have organized with sticks, stones and machetes, They have threatened us that if we return, they will shoot us. It cannot be what is happening in Santa Cruz and that some authorities do absolutely nothing. For this reason, the neighbors are fed up with so much abuse,” said the Secretary of the Interior for the Environment, Jhonny Rojas, who received a stone on the head.
He also explained that the 12-month environmental administrative pause decreed by the Santa Cruz Governor’s Office on Monday, December 5, is not being complied with.
The authority pointed out that in the area there is environmental damage, illegal settlements, clearing and animals that lost their lives product of the burning of pastures in the clashes last Wednesday.
The commission took refuge in the Kim family home, while the attackers stayed in place.
