WHY WILL IT HURT THE
JOURNALISM SO MUCH?
ATTACK AGAINST A JOURNALIST
Yesterday January 25th were commemorated, in Argentina,
the third anniversary of the cruel and wild murder of journalist
José Luis Cabezas, amid an oral trial about to conclude
and with the theatrical scenery of public knowledge that surround
to the fact. But, like it was expected the cowardly and cheap
terrorism it deployed their repulsive aggressive and intimidating
action once again, against the freedom of expression, an inalienable
right of any human being that is priced of such and that seeks
to live in society and in democracy. But specifically directed
to those that by his profession, they take ahead the most
dangerous and chancy of them, the JOURNALISM.
Exactly yesterday, the journalist Alberto Avila -who has overturned
in this page the whole investigation on: " The coup that
was not...", the homicide of the Vice-president from
Paraguay Dr.Luis María Argaña - it suffered
an attack against their property that miraculously didn't
cause personal damages.
Specifically, at dawn hours, individuals that police search
intensely, made shots of thick caliber shotguns, destroying
the door of the housing of Avila and they left by way of intimidation
a grenade carcass that ¯thanks God- didn't contain explosive,
but that nevertheless it forced to dislodged His housing,
as well as those of the neighbors to give intervention to
the Explosive Brigade of the Police of the Prov. of Buenos
Aires who later on checked this situation.
It is superfluous to comment the moments of anguish lived
by Avila, their small children, their wife and their mother-in-law
who inhabit the property. But it is useful this site in the
web to reject once again every intimidating act, every aggression
against the journalism.
Of course we make solidary with journalist Alberto Avila,
with their family and with the whole press, victim in the
last times of the intolerance of some that believe that they
can continue living in impunity and in terror.
We know that the lie has short legs and that when it is reached
by the truth it has its counted days. Want God that very soon,
that TRUTH for which we struggle from here reach, not alone
to Paraguay but to the whole Latin America.
And allow us to paraphrase to Don Quijote: "They bark
Sancho, sign that they are dogs..."
