TO: DON CARLOS RUBIO, SUBDELEGADO DEL GOBIERNO EN MÁLAGA

With the present writing we want to express our total support and solidarity with our
friends, who since Thursday 24th Jamuary have been doing an unlimited camp in front of the CIE (Detention Center) against the detention of a group of immigrants in Almeria, when they were demonstrating peacefully for the right to live with dignity. Also we want to manifest our rejection to the disproportionate and brutal police behaviour, that once the camp was dismantled and when the demonstrators were leaving, the police charged against them incomprehensibly, as a result they imprisoned two people but previously they were badly beaten up inside the CIE.

As is it wasn't enough, one of the imprisoned and beaten up people, Nicolás Sguiglia,
having double nationality Argentino-Italian, has received this Friday 1st of February, an expulsion order, that can be executed in 8 days, we found this measure unacceptable and that we will not tolerate it. As you should know being in the charge your repression against people who fight for better living conditions with dignity
for everybody has never been a good solution, for that reason we demand your
responsibility for the events as well as the inmediate annulment of the expulsion order
given to Nicolás Sguiglia.
