The Permanent Assembly for Human Rights (APDH) called for a march next Tuesday “in the streets and squares of all of Argentina” within the framework of the mobilization that will take place that day at the Palace of Courts in the city of Buenos Aires in claim of “the resignation of this Court, the end of lawfare” and the “effective democratization of justice”.
The co-president of the APDH, Eduardo Tavani, said in a statement that “the demand for February 1 is in the streets and squares throughout Argentina” and maintained that “the APDH says that it is present, as it has always been, a once again together with other sister organizations, social organizations, workers’ unions, unions and the vast majority of the people”.
In this sense, the APDH, which is part of the organization table of the mobilization against the “malfunctioning of a sector of Justice”, called for a march for the “consolidation of the Rule of Law” and the respect and full validity of “the human rights of everyone”.
Tavani defined the call “without protagonism or shrillness, peacefully, calling to join all possible wills”, because “it is urgent, convinced that the unity in the diversity that we conform is what empowers, feeds and moves us in this feat”.

Likewise, he affirmed that the street “will once again be the stage” to express the demands and demand “a justice system for the people” or a Supreme Court that “respects the National Constitution, the international treaties incorporated into it and the laws of the Nation”, and that it be “plural and independent of external pressures and concentrated groups of power.
“We will loudly demand the resignation of this Court, the end of lawfare and the effective democratization of justice, aware that without justice at the service of our people there will be no true democracy, at a time when wearying has reached the limit” , he underlined.
“This action by the head of the judiciary and by many and many judges and prosecutors has shattered the democratic pact that society as a whole embraced after having recovered democracy in 1983”Edward Tavani
On the other hand, he remarked that “we have seen with astonishment how in these years the Supreme Federal Court, an accomplice of the owners of all things, has validated an infinity of absolutely arbitrary and illegal practices” and said that these are “practices that serious risk to the institutions of the Republic”.
“This action by the head of the judiciary and by many and many judges and prosecutors has shattered the democratic pact that society as a whole embraced after having recovered democracy in 1983,” said the co-president of the APDH.
Tavani also pointed out that “we were not and are not willing and willing to remain impassive before this justice system” that “has been the guarantor of the greatest and most flagrant injustices, the greatest abuses of the dignity of people and institutions and of the looting and razing to which we have been subjected”.
