Drama in the Santa Cruz province of Guarayos. Without an intermediate room for the passage of vehicles, a long line of heavy transport trucks, approximately 5 kilometers long, was left halfway. Stranded, with cargo and animals, without water and without food.
The Traffic on the highway that connects Santa Cruz with Trinidad has been closed for six days by a large group of Intercultural peasantssettled in two communities -San Antonio del Junte and Cerro Grande-, whose main demand is to ask for justice for the death of the young Franklin Delgadillo and the solution to the land conflict.
Óscar Llave, one of the many truck drivers stranded since Thursday night, told EL DEBER Radio the hours of anguish and despair that they have had to live on the highway.
“We are tired of waiting in these conditions. This situation is going to get out of control, there may be confrontations “he said in a brief contact.
The line is so long, he continued, that from where he is he cannot see the area where the group of peasants in the Cerro Grande community is.
Like the rest of those affected, asks the Government to take action on the matter, provide a solution to the conflict and the intervention of the Police.
Likewise, Llave indicated that since it is harvest time, there are shipments of rice and corn that must reach their destination and then be distributed.
