C.C. MEMBERS OF
COMISIoN OF indigenous SUBJECTS
OF THE CAMARA OF SENATORS
MeXICO, D.F.
P R And S And N T E.
With attention to Calderon Senator Hinojosa
Pta. Of the commission of indigenous subjects. Of
The Senate.
Those that we subscribed, members of the Organizing
Meeting of Popular the indigenous Council of Oaxaca, Ricardo Flowers
Magon “CIPO-RFM” that she has not even been
prisoner, with the had respect we went to you to expose to them:
11. The CIPO-RFM we are one organizacion of indigenous
communities of the state of Oaxaca that we do not belong to any
started off politico, legal or secret, and among other propositos we
have fighting of peaceful way by the reconstruction and frees
association of our towns, autonomy and self-determination, respect to
the collective and human rights, of the women and minors, by
communitarian mass media, the communitarian development, in short, by
the life of us and demas.
12. Ever since we arose like organizacion, November of
1997, we have suffered the pain the persecution, the fear of being
assassinated and being repressed, the pain of being discriminated,
being hated, victims and being slandered; the sinking of being
jailed, missing and being persecuted.
13. The governments of Diodoro Carrasco Altamirano and the
one of Jose Murat have been the direct people in charge of all this
institutional violence against our towns, communities, organizacion
and members. Neither he has had attitude of respect to us like
indigenous. First I describe as “delincuentes
sociales” to us;, “horda of salvajes” the
second us nego the right namely to write a letter and I defame to us
like violent, corrupt and intransigentes. The real crime, not to
fold us to its Politicall and to demand digamente what is well of all
the oxHerenos, the freedom, justice, democracy, respect, in a word,
worthy treatment and just.
14. The denunciations of sistematica, permanent and
constant violation of our rights are of the dominion I publish and
tens of wounded, stopped have cost us and even died.
Nevertheless, the institutions in charge to try justice nothing
do for it and single they are dedicated to protect the rapists of our
rights, among them paramilitary.
15. The significant but recent aggressions are made
against us the 8, 10 and 17 of Julio, who I leave a ten of wounded and
hospitalized and the 14, 15, 16 and 18 of September that in the same
way I leave several injured and 14 lengthy (Dolores Villalobos
Cuamatzin, Nahua; Kalid Perez Gomez, Zapoteca of 17 years of
age; Leonor Lopez Alavez, Zapoteca of 15 years; Guadalupe
Garcia, Daisy Garcia Garcia, Mixtecas; Carmen Lopez Perez,
Zapoteca; Gildardo Perez Gomez, Mixteco of 17 years;
Brown Miguel Cross, Gumaro Lopez Alavez, Jose Cross Cross, all
Zapotecos; Reynaldo Fair Hernandez, Mauro Garcia Garcia and
Habacuc Cross Cross, Mixtecos; and Abel Ramirez, Chatino,
16. In this occasion they were put in practices
paramilitary actions to attack to those who pacificamente we remain
planted and all the apparatus of state was arranged to squash to us
with the law like instrument, the repressive bodies like tool and the
mass media like spokesmen, generators of the consensus and
legitimadores of the repression like metodo.
17. We managed to remove to 7 on bail, whose amounts were
of $45, 000,00 each one since they denied reduccion to us of the same
ones. This money we could pay it selling our hens and bulls,
totopos, honey, artesanias, etc. At the moment they are left 7
of our imprisoned brothers, to four of who the right to guarantee has
denied them to consider them dangerous for the society.
18. Nevertheless, the problems of our towns follow,
therefore the protests ours also, for that reason we followed planted
in front of the government palace who this surrounded by metalicas
fences, and guarded by policias day and night. also all
nights, by dawns, until day 18 of September palace salian of of
governor, policias dressed black, places setting of face, with boots
and knives and rods and tubes and woods that arrives where we are
planted to strike to us, to rob to us and to break our things, and to
say groserias to us so that we go away from return to the people without
solution to our demand of justice and leaving hermanos/as prisoners/as.
19. By all the previous one, in spite of being scared that
at any time returns to us to evacuate (until today they have evacuated
us 7 times), stop us to others or they kill to us, the communities we
have decided to follow the long wait until obtaining solution to our
demands by which we began the nonsingle fight and the liberation of
the prisoners and the punishment to those who have violated us our
rights.
20. Now we are demanding:
a) Respect to autonomy in fact that we exert in the
communities of the CIPO-RFM
b) Dismantling of the paramilitary groups in Oaxaca and
all Mexico, Still like punishment to those of the CROCUT (To stop Toimil
and Jacobo Chavez) that 16/octubre/03 in Sta. Ma. Yaviche killed to
Bartolome Rooms and hurt of bullet to 9 men and women, to Torch Farmer
who 11/agosto/02 killer to 2 ninos and hirio to 34 women in the
Iyusion place San Isidro Aloapan
c) Freedom immediate and unconditional to our shut in
indigenous prisoners in the penitentiary of Ixcotel, Etla and
Miahuatlan: Dolores Villalobos Cuamatzin, Daisy Garcia Garcia,
Brown Miguel Cross, Gumaro Lopez Alavez, Jose Cross Cross, Habacuc
Cross Cruz and Reyaldo Hernandez Fair; Still like absolute freedom
to those who are on bail free.
d) Punishment to those who glided, organized, they ordered and
they executed the acts of repression against us and violated our but
elementary human rights.
e) Solution to agrarian conflicts of San Isidro Aloapam
and the one of Sta. Catarina Yosonotu, Still like guarantees for the life
of Raul representing Gatica and demas
f) Fulfillment of the social demands jeopardizes by
Murat Governor with the communities and that have to date not
fulfilled: municipal light, water, ways, clinicas,
participation, etc.
g) Respect to the communitarian radio Guetza, that comes
transmitting from year 2000 in the frequency of the 94,1 from FM and
whose permission this in transacts and to all the projects of
communitarian character which we have: transport,
commercialization, supply, production, etc.
These and others are not the crimes by which they repress to us
and they jail to our representatives.
11) We have identified clearly the people in charge of all these
aggressions, among others to Diodoro Carrasco Altamirano, Jose Murat
Casab, Alonso Celestine the Alvarez, Jose M. Vera Saline, Brown Manuel
Rivas, Aristeo Lopez Martinez and at the moment to Ulises Ruiz Ortiz,
being the main beneficiary of the repression.
By all the previous one to you we solicitd:
I) Since for the CIPO-RFM there are interlocutors no been worth
in the government of the state, by his lack of will to I engage in a
dialog and to take care of the reclamations of our communities, we
resorted to you so that as commission of indigenous Subjects of the
Senate of the Republica participates in the search of solution all and
each one of the demands raised by the communities of the CIPO-RFM.
II) are pronounced publicamente to demand the government of the
state of Oaxaca stops to the repression against their criticos, and
make commitment and concrete actions to restrain the repression to the
indigenous of the CIPO-RFM and to release to our prisoners.
III) Nombren a commission that takes part before the organisms
corresponding until the solution to the problem, that exposes the
problem before the plenary session of camara of senators so that a
point in agreement with respect to restraining the repression is
obtained who we suffer the indigenous towns.
IV) support economicamente for the expenses of the legal defense,
diffusion of the conflict and attention to the injured ones.
V) Den pursuit to all the related one to the repression that we
suffered and ask for to our name the intervention of the commission of
Human rights of the own one to be able legislative.
Without but at the moment, we took advantage of to greet them
and to thank for the fineness of its attention.
By the reconstruction and it frees association of our
towns

even been stopped)
