20 Campesinos in Intag to be Interrogated

Sat. 17 Dec. Yesterda, Ascendant succeeded in asking Imabura’s attorney general to start criminal investigation of the burning of their camp in Chalguayacu Bajo by serving notices in Intag to 12 people presumed to be present at the event. We’ll give you all their names in the future, but from preliminary information, it includes all of the community leaders in the area- including some who were not even at the scene.

Knowing how the court system operate in this country, and the endemic corruption, the propsects for the poor defendants is not very promising.

Please keep tuned to see how you can help.
