PERU '
Hundreds of women' s National Association of families of the kidnapped, detained and disappeared in Peru (Anfasep) walking along the mountainous areas of the Andean country. Looking for the remains of missing children during the conflict that has bloodied the Andean country from 1980 to 2000, sometimes discovering true "mountains of corpses", as the founder of the association, Angelica Mendoza. Angelica never saw his son was arrested in 1983. Same fate for Mercedes Gutierrez, an elderly peasant whose two sons accused of links with the guerrillas , were taken by soldiers and taken to barracks and then vanish. Ten years after the end of the war do not know the fate of thousands of missing persons. One part was a victim of Maoist guerrillas of Sendero Luminoso , but the majority fell under the blows of harsh repression that, "lift the water to fish", was unleashed against poor farmers.
"The number of the disappeared in Peru is ten times higher than that of the military dictatorship in Chile - remember Daniel Dupuis (author of" Donde estan ? ") - dell'Anfasep but women have not enjoyed the attention of the press and international public opinion. " Perhaps because, unlike the disappeared in Chile and Argentina, usually middle-class cities, the majority of Peruvians consisted of poor peasants, indigenous people without identification documents who spoke only Quechua, the language . In addition, the Peruvian regime has never been perceived as a dictatorship, despite the elimination of activists, trade unionists and dissidents and the massacres in the prisons ( Lurigancho , el Fronton . .). In 2003, a document of the Commission for Truth and Reconciliation was about 8558 disappeared. Since then the number of confirmed cases has been rising. For the forensic anthropologist Tanya Molina "enforced disappearances, mostly of young men, were at least fifteen, for three quarters in the region of Ayacucho." So far, only 2 percent would have been identified, despite the discovery of several mass graves. Overall it is estimated that the victims of armed conflict have been twenty years 70 thousand. Honoring the dead by the Andean people is very important and can not find the bodies of missing children to their mothers becomes a form of "permanent psychological torture."
GRENOBLE BURNING?
all began with the killing by police of a young robber, Karim Boudouda. The riots on the night were then transformed into Villeneuve Belfast eighties, between cars on fire and the helicopters that brightens up the facades of buildings. Five months later, life goes hard in the former district pattern of Grenoble. With a high unemployment rate and just as delinquency, Villeneuve (12 thousand inhabitants) , after having been for weeks under the media spotlight, at least hopes to have attracted the attention of public authorities. A "Global Plan of Action", which remained in the drawer for years, is now being taken up and presented to the press by the local administrators who say they "want to take their share of responsibility for what happened." Priority objectives "open the district to the city and make it safer." As already planned since 2008, will be killed 5% of the seventeen hundred apartments No 50 of galerie de l'Arlequin, where he had barricaded Boudouba with his automatic weapons and where groups of young people had left devastated with Molotov cocktails and baseball bats.
speeches planned by 2013 for an additional 300 apartments that will be a "drive smaller, safer and more manageable." Even by the police, of course. At the same time will facilitate the acquisition of property and transfer of people who now live there in close quarters. The police presence is constant in the neighborhood, especially around the shopping center where, until two o'clock at night, watch and patrol fifty CRS.
Other policemen control the landings and public areas to deter drug dealers. But a "wall of silence", he made vain inquiries, and so far none of the perpetrators of the riots was arrested. The young people were arrested soon released for lack of evidence.
MEXICO
Figures nightmare those reported by the Network for children's rights in Mexico. between 2006 and 2007 the homicide rate for teenagers aged 15 to 17 years would have increased from 6.44 to 7.95 per hundred thousand. But in places like Ciudad Juarez more than a quarter of those killed was between 12 and 24 years. On 27 October a young group of Tepito killed seven people between 22 and 28 years. A likely showdown between young drug dealers. In Tijuana, 24 October, 13 residents in a disintoccazione to have been lined up against the wall by a group of young and shot. A clear message for those who are trying to free themselves from dependence on drugs. The day before had fired wildly against other young participants at a party, causing 15 dead and scores wounded. Police said many of the attackers were not more than 16 years. For these crimes indiscriminate experts confirm the young age of managers who do not check their weapons still good. In March, in Ciudad Juarez, was arrested a young sixteen year old killer, Hector Joel Ortega Figuera (nicknamed El Duende , the elf) who had just killed the leader of a rival gang. In April police arrested in Villahermosa a thirteen suspected of having committed several murders on behalf of a gang.
gangs of young people between 14 and 24 years would be more than fifteen hundred. They work for drug traffickers, especially along the border with the United States.
Most of these kids come from poor neighborhoods, uses drugs and suffered abuse in the family. According to some psychiatrists that if they are busy " to get rid of the status of victim, they retain the same behavior of the aggressors . In addition, the drug traffickers would represent a successful model of social success and power with their powerful cars and their automatic weapons. A recent study by the Ministry of Public Security shows that "only three months of training to turn a young street vendor or in a window cleaner by trade murderess." Initially they are used as sentinels to check if the police arrive. Killer now, earn about 10 thousand pesos (almost 600 euro) per week. We estimate that in four years 29 thousand people were murdered, a reporter from the Milenio wrote that "the mafia must continually renew their troops and cost less than these young adults ". With the economic crisis, things will only get worse, despite the government's commitment that this year has allocated 13 million euro to strengthen surveillance and prevention of delinquency and drug abuse in schools. Other € 174 million has been allocated for health, education, job security and job creation.
