with the hand to the pursuers, who when seeing itself discovered of
very evident way dispersed. The commander of the police
convencio, and I ask to us that because they perseguian to us and that

transnational and demas; that the 14 of September of this year

crime to request justice. That estabamos we in the DF because we
are part of the representatives who have not been assassinated nor
stopped todavia and we come to denounce what happens in Oaxaca in
which this killing to much people of opposition, and that at the
moment also estabamos Here because we come to communicate all the
organisms of D.H. of the measures you will prevent that Javier Gatica

Serian the 9:45 at night, the commander gave instructions him to
the auxiliary police Pedro Lopez Trejo that gave guarantees us of
which it did not pass anything and that gave single to the people who
dijeramos we.
The auxiliary police lead us then to door 2, from where all the
movement in the room was observed of I ACCEPT, for that reason we
realized that the people who teniamos totally identified, no longer
were.
Between the 10 and 10:20 at night estabamos all nervous and
whatever veiamos suspect or pensabamos us towards well-known that was
of that they wished to make us dano. We observed with well-taken
care of the arrival of all world. Still we could see that three
people arrived joins, one young person of 20-25 years, dress type
cholo, with gray sweater shirt, sport, another fort, stop, of orange
shirt, hair curly and one but skinny, brown, thin one, haircut
military type, with trousers to dress gray-bluish, black vest and one
chamarra in the hand. They began to see the exit signboards, but
they did not approach any window.
The dress type cholo I speak by I telephone cellular and Since
him comment something to the oido one to which vestia with vest, at
the same time which they dispersed in different senses. The one
of clothes to dress I remain there watching in direction of where
estabamos. The dress Cholo type went in direction of where the

magazines of there same.
Meanwhile the dress with orange playera I am placed in the
chairs that they give to door two of the ADO-GL, where estabamos we.
As to the 10:40 dress type cholo it came from the position of
magazine and sento in the chairs that they give to door 2, and
although I arrive with the one from orange playera did not seat
together, but that the dress of cholo did it in the part of ahead and
of the one of the orange playera atras.
Another suspicious person which I speak with them vestia playera
green, short sleeve, with orange strips, mezclilla, colored people and

Pedro salio to do you complete telefonicas calls and I approach
another one to him of the suspects who tapeworm sweater shirt blue
sky, sport, brown color, shave, corpulento, judicial type, I ask to
him: To THAT HOUR LEAVES The FLIGHT, pedro I move away and
went to call by I telephone. This same suspect Since put
itself to platicar with a person of similar characteristics,
corpulento, hair short, but dressed black, stop.
We noticed that all spoke with the thin, brown person, like of
35 years, civilian dress, trousers to dress, gray-bluish, shirt of
long sleeve and black vest and with one chamarra in the hand.
Like a 10:50, to the dress of Vest, gray-bluish trousers
military type, which seguia stopped where they are the signboards I
approach the one to him of yellow shirt pictures, judicial type and I
speak to him to the oido one, I give a suitcase to him and one went
away. Then the one of the vest put his chamarra on the suitcase
and dirigio to door 2, where estabamos.
We said him to those who they gave us protection that that
parecia known to us that of insurance was police because we have seen
it in the negotiations with the governor and when the things are
dificiles in the protests always happened in corporal's rounds, by our
long waits.
The auxiliary police take into account that and when passage to
revision found a large-caliber weapon him, to justify its possession I
embosom a credential without company/signature, we let it know to the
policia and him pidio information to which the armed person, while it
gave its weapon said that it worked directly with Governor Jose Murat.
The police Pedro Lopez Trejo volume all its data and I
confiscate the weapon, he did not say to us because not it detenia, we
as estabamos scared we did not notice ourselves of the name and did
not ask the reason because they do not detenian it. also the
policia to us remained watching with eyes of hatred and resentment.
The other that were reported with put nervous and were standing
observing that happened. Finally the person who was armed step
to approach the bus in the direction of Oaxaca.
Minutes before the 11 at night, the police Pedro Lopez Trejo
him retirement the weapon to that decia that it worked directly with
the governor and did to him that it put his data in a document of the
terminal I ACCEPT.
The person who was disarmed I watch to us with hatred and for
that reason we could notice its vidriosa glance, as if it was drugged.
Step and was awhile without approaching the bus in the direction
of Oaxaca, until finally subio, like a 11 at night. Quizas all
of them thought that we tackled that bus.
As at 11:10 at night two comrades of organizations arrived by
us sisters: Juan Anzaldo of EC Acatl and Erendida Villegas Cross
of CENCOS. To those who we narrated the facts to them, then they
decided that salieramos by the part of atras, accompanied by the
policia of I ACCEPT.
We at night left course to the parking like a 11:40, and arrived
ahi five minutes Since. In the passage we requested to the
policia that registry the data of the armed person who provided the
name to us of the person to whom they cleared the weapon. It
said to us that podia not to do it because is restricted information
of the company, but that if it is asked for of official way can give
it.
When to arrive at parking, before to approach car that us
conduciria outside, I arrive car silverplated without plates, where
people left three, one of them we identified it like part of that they
persecuted to us in the terminal, at the moment that metia the hand in
the armpit the senalamos and the police I remain it watching, then
siguio front and attack a light truck they suburban black, without
plates and polarized glasses. They happened as 10 minutes there
stopped and as veian that the police was there began to leave one
Since the other. We waited for a little time and Since we
left course to the ministry I publish to make the denunciation
corresponding, serian like a 12:25 or 12:30.
We arrived at the Ministry I publish of the delegation
Venustiano Carranza where we denounced of summarized way these facts,
same that they were based in the inquiry: VC3T3/3284/04-09.
Us attended the Agent of the Ministry I publish Lydia Kings, of
agency VC-3, where we made clear established that the probable people
in charge of this act of harassment and possible attempt to
assassinate us to the CC. Jose Murat Casab, Alonso Celestine
Alvarez, Juan Diaz Pimentel, Ulises Ruiz Ortiz: Governor of the
state, Secretary General of Government, President of the Camara de
Diputados in Oaxaca and the elect governing assumption of Oaxaca.
The previous thing because they have said of direct way in
multiple occasions that Raul Gatica is going away to die, and the own
Juan Diaz Pimentel, by order of the governor, Secretary General of
government and at that time precandidate to Ulises governor Ruiz,
segun let know it to Miguel Cuellar Angel Eyrie, has contracted that
he assassinates to Raul Gatica.
If from the 18 of October of 2003 Raul Gatica it lives in the
sinking, fearing that at any time they assassinate to me, now it is
but hard this fear, because if they have assassinated municipal
candidates to president, locked up to 14 of my companeros, threatened
of death to many of us, sent to the communities paramilitary groups,
and now until in the own city of Mexico they persecute to us with but
the perverse intentions, quizas to disappear to us or to assassinate
to us. Or that at any time simulating a robbery, rina, accident
or something asi, we finish dead. Then now we are not out of
danger nowhere, because if we already have measures you will prevent
of the inter-American cut and in spite of that to us continues
harassing, that but we can hope?
Kindly
