The following was translated from Portuguese.
From LCP - League of Poor Peasants:
On the last day 27, more than 30 families were
evicted from Cashew Camp 1, located on Seawall farm, the RO-257 in Machadinho
D'Oeste. They attended the shameful police action of PM, GOE, Civil Police and
Fire Department, heavily armed. Until a helicopter was present. Two peasants
were arrested.
Images of strong repressive apparatus can be
seen on the internet, in the following matter: http://www.anarinoticia.com.br/distrito-de-5o-bec-apos-decisao-judicial-fazenda-paredao-e-reintegrada-com-grande-aparato-policial/
Several months ago the peasants of Cashew Camp
1, supported by the LCP, came lutandom the sacred land rights. There have been
several meetings with the Incra and the National Agrarian Ombudsman and
negotiations were advancing. But none of that was enough to prevent more absurd
eviction.
For landowners support and connivance with his
crimes for evictions peasants, slander, harassment, arrests and killings of
leaders
The government does not comply or bogus land
reform provided for in the Federal Constitution and the peasants are brutally
repressed!
Last December, the farmer Caubi Moreira Quito
confessed to the chief of the Civil Police of Buritis, Dr. Renato Cesar Morari,
who hired gunmen to military police service. Gercino not done anything about
the (in) justice does not he arrested.
Last September, the landowner and former mayor
of Vilhena or Negro Zen and heavily armed gunmen kidnapped and tortured two
peasants for several days. The military police of the governor Confucius Moura
(PMDB) refused to accompany a committee of lawyers, teachers, students and
peasants from all over the state. After the peasants were rescued, Nego Zen and
gunmen were arrested. But they were released at the same time, neither gave
police the time take photo next to them, posing robocop.
Or a fifth of the repressive apparatus used to
dump less than 40 families in a land that is being negotiated by Incra was sent
to Rio Pardo to investigate the barbaric murder of Paul Justin. He was
president of an association that fought for the rights of peasants, mainly to
reoccupy the land from which they were evicted for 2 years.
No agent of the intelligence service was
assigned to investigate this case, neither the murder Surveyor Jander Faria,
member of the same association Paulo Justino. It is said in Rio Pardo that
other 5 people were killed recently, all also argued that the evicted families
reocupassem their land. But no police went to investigate. And Mario Jorge
Pinto Sobrinho, agrarian delegate Rondônia still had the nerve to say in a
report that the police are investigating the possibility that the murder of
Paul Justin have been motivated by revenge (http://www.ebc.com.br/noticias/2015
/ 05 / police-de-rondonia-investigates murder-for-activist-rural) for a crime
committed by a homonym Paulo, Pernambuco.
Farmers are tired of so much injustice to
report and nothing happens.
The peasants want land, not repression!
Land to those who work it!
Punishment for the perpetrators and
instigators of crimes against peasants!
