Too obscene to post in the home page

January 25, 2003

I have posted pictures of the Panamco workers that were tortured by the National Guard on the day they took over the Distribution warehouse for Coke and other products. Those injuries were caused by electric cattle prods and the case has been presented to the Attorney General’s office. He will do nothing and then it will be taken by COFAVIC to International Human Rights Courts. I really did not want to have them in my home page, but think they should be part of the documentation of my blog.


(By the way, a First Circuit Court issued yesterday a precautionary order against the Government carrying out similar actions. In a curious note, the action was justified by the Government because the scarcity of the products was leading to speculative prices, the confiscated beer is being sold by the consumer protection  authorities with a premium of more than 100%. Long live the revolution!)
