The head of Economic Development explained that the custody they have on the land issue is through the Departmental Agrarian Commission, which has been summoned previously, on three occasions, but that it has not been able to meet due to the absence of the national director of the Agrarian Reform Institute (INRA).
He also recalled that nor do they have custody over the departmental police. For the departmental authority, this is a State competence.

“If this blockade were carried out by our indigenous people and our original communities, the blockade would already have been intervened by (the national government). I assure you one hundred percent. But, as it is from the intercultural, as it is from the people of the (national) Government, from San Julián and Cuatro Cañadas, that is why the Government does not intervene, because they are its people”, stated Menacho, who also explained that they verified the plates of the vehicles that transport the blockers and that these correspond to San Julián and Cuatro Cañadas.
Menacho also affirmed that, from the Government, denounced this situation of the blockade and the land conflict before the National Directorate of INRA, but that “since justice is also managed by the Government, our complaints have had no results.”
