Communiqué of the CCRI-CG of EZLN, 30 of April 2007
COMMUNIQUE OF THE CLANDESTINE REVOLUTIONARY INDIGENOUS COMMITTEE - GENERAL COMMAND OF THE ZAPATISTA ARMY OF NATIONAL LIBERATION.
Sixth Commission of the EZLN.
MEXICO. 30 OF APRIL 2007.
TO THE PEOPLE OF MEXICO:
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD:
TO THE OTHER CAMPAIGN:
THE EZLN MAKES THE FOLLOWING DENUNCIATION PUBLIC:
FIRST. - ELEMENTS OF THE FEDERAL ARMY HARASSED THE DELEGATES OF THE SIXTH COMMISSION OF THE EZLN WORKING ON THE OTHER CAMPAIGN IN THE NORTHEAST REGION OF OUR COUNTRY.
SECOND. - 29 OF APRIL, AT APPROX 1930 HOURS, THE CONVOY OF ADHERENTS OF THE OTHER CAMPAIGN THAT ACCOMPANIES COMANDANTAS MIRIAM AND EUCARIA, AND COMMANDANTE ZEBEDEO, WAS STOPPED AT THE MILITARY CHECKPOINT ON THE HIGHWAY FROM MONTEMORELOS TO LINARES, NUEVO LEON.
THE SOLDIERS AGGRESSIVELY SEARCHED AND INTERROGATED THE CIVILIANSS ACCOMPANYING THE ZAPATISTA DELEGATION, AND PHOTOGRAPHED THEM AND THEIR VEHICLES, WHICH THEY SEARCHED EXHAUSTIVELY.
THIRD. - FROM THE BEGINNING OF OUR DIRECT PARTICIPATION IN THE OTHER CAMPAIGN, MANY DIFFERENT FEDERAL AND STATE POLICE BODIES, AS WELL AS ELEMENTS OF "INTELLIGENCE" OF THE FEDERAL ARMY AND THE CISEN, HAVE BEEN DEDICATED TO MONITORING THE SIXTH COMMISSION, AS WELL AS TAKING PHOTOS, DATA AND, IN SOME CASES, TO HARASSING THE PEOPLE WHO ACCOMPANY US OR THOSE TO WHOM WE HAVE LISTENED ON OUR ROUTE.
THESE SPIES HAVE VERIFIED THAT THE EZLN IS NOT PROMOTING ARMED WARFARE, BUT THE CIVIL ORGANISATION OF PEOPLE. THEY KNOW THAT, UNLIKE THE POLITICAL GOVERNORS AND PARTIES, WE DO NOT LIE, BUT LISTEN TO AND ECHO THE INJUSTICES OUR PEOPLE UNDERGO THROUGHOUT THE NATIONAL TERRITORY. THEY ALSO KNOW THAT WE DO NOT TRANSPORT ARMS OR DRUGS.
IN THE LAST PART OF THE FIRST STAGE, THIS HARASSMENT BECAME GREATER, AND NOW, ON THIS OCCASION, THE AGGRESSION WAS DIRECTLY AGAINST THE ZAPATISTA DELEGATION.
FOURTH. - WITH THE MOVEMENT OF THE OTHER CAMPAIGN, THE EZLN HAS FOLLOWED THE WAY OF CIVIL AND PEACEFUL STRUGGLE. IT IS PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE AND VERIFIABLE THAT THE EZLN DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ORGANIZED CRIME, NEITHER INSIDE NOR OUTSIDE THE GOVERNMENTAL SPHERES OR THOSE OF THE POLITICAL PARTIES. IT IS A RIDICULOUS AND UNFOUNDED PRETEXT, AND THESE ARGUMENTS ARE USED TO ATTACK TO OUR COMRADES
FIFTH. - IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS ALREADY DECIDED TO CLOSE DOWN THAT CIVIL ROUTE, AND DECIDES NOW ON THE RESUMPTION OF THE WAR IN THE MEXICAN SOUTHEAST, IT WOULD DO WELL TO STATE IT CLEARLY. IN ANY CASE, WE ARE READY. FOR ONE THING OR ANOTHER.
SIXTH. - WE MAKE A CALL TO NOBLE AND HONEST PEOPLE THAT THEY DECLARE THEMSELVES AGAINST THESE HARASSMENTS.
DEMOCRACY! FREEDOM! JUSTICE!
