Jorge Dos Santos, treasurer of the Rural Association of Paraguay (ARP), stressed that finally, the Joint Task Forces (FTC) are having effectiveness in the fight against the self-styled Army of the Paraguayan People (EPP), a group of criminals who It has done a lot of damage to the country.
“To have someone kidnapped is terrible, but to have a vice president kidnapped shows the degree of audacity and contempt for the life of the guys. Therefore, we have to continue fighting until it ends”, he stated.
On the other hand, he stressed that a convicted person has privileges in reference to Carmen Villalba, detained in the “Buen Pastor” women’s penitentiary, who asked to see her brother Osvaldo Villalba for the last time in his coffin, before his burial, requesting that He was treated before the threat of mutiny.
“The poor relatives of Félix Urbieta, Edelio Morínigo and Óscar Denis, do not have the possibility of decently burying their relatives in case they were no longer alive. Which might not be. However, they have privileges and order and decide that they will behave if they let him do such a thing or not. That for me is an attack on the institutionality. In addition to the embarrassment of removing a minister in just 8 hours, “he said.
He urged the Joint Task Forces (FTC) to greater protection of indigenous peoples. “In addition to the fact that many have their rights violated, now they are also victims of criminals who are being. This group allies itself with drug trafficking, with extortion, with kidnappings, they collect the revolutionary tax”, he affirmed.
He finally said that the self-proclaimed EPP has been weakened for a long time and we must take advantage of this blow, in order to give them a definitive end. “But don’t be careless, since any terrorist can cause a lot of damage with little infrastructure,” he concluded.
