A todas las organizaciones democraticas:

En estos momentos (28 de junio, 4:00 pm) las 2000 familias del poblado

Maclovio Rojas estamos siendo agredidos por alrededor de 200 policias

municipales, ministeriales del estado, policia federal preventiva, agentes de

gobernacion, etc. Policias y fuerzas paramilitares estan formando un cerco

alrededor de la colonia con el objetivo de aprender a los dirigentes del

poblado, en especial a la companhera Hortencia Hernandez, asi como para crear

un enfrentamiento, justificar la represión y despojarnos de las 197 hectareas

que poseen los pobladores de la Maclovio.

Su apoyo publico es muy importante en estos momentos. Favor de enviar cartas

de apoyo a los periodicos y brigadas de apoyo civil al poblado Maclovio Rojas.

Atentamente:
