Sorry for the short notice.
Today there will be a piquet at 5 pm in front of the chilean embassy
12 Devonshire Street, London, W1G
This will be to protest against the repression the indigenous communities are suffering in Chile under the "socialist government" of Michelle Bachelet.
Omar Gonzales Loncon, a 19 years old mapuche, received a bullet in his forehead last sunday 10th, while many celebrations for pinochet's death where happening,
The police came into the community of Peñalolen and fired on him. His mother came out and went directly to the police asking for explanation, which were not given at all, the police simply left the place.
At the moment both of them are in hospital.
As well the Political prisioner Waiquilaf Cadin Calfunao, is holding a hunger strike that is been in place for more than 75 days. Demanding the review of the charges as terrorists of the political prisioners mapuche. His mother has been arrested as well for over reacting against a judge.
Less than 3 months ago, 4 political prisioners stopped their hunger strike, due to the promises of the government of reviewing the charges. Still today the government had done nothing about it.
