HELP BRING JUSTICE TO THE BOLIVIAN PEOPLE
Mar 1, 2006
from Donna:

HELP BRING JUSTICE TO THE BOLIVIAN PEOPLE

Members of the Bolivia Solidarity Network have launched an electronic
petition drive aimed at the U.S. State and Justice Departments as well as the U.S. Embassy regarding the investigation of ex-President Gonzalo Sanchez
de Lozada and two of his ex-ministers residing in the U.S. for the deaths and injuries during the "Gas War" of October 2003.

During September and October, 2003, Bolivians took to the streets in a series of protests demanding that the government nationalize the country's
extensive natural gas resources. In response , the "Goni" government sent in
the military to squash the protests. As a result over 60 people were killed by sniper attacks, gun shot wounds and other injuries. To date 8 of the 11
ministers involved have testified and now await sentencing, however the
former President, ultimately the person responsible, has yet to stand charges.

In June 2005, the Bolivian government issued a letter rogatory, asking the US government to serve Goni papers demand him to return to Bolivia within 45 days for questioning. To date they haven't served him and the case against Goni cannot proceed.

The international campaign demanding that the US government subpoena,
Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada (Goni) to return to Bolivia to face justice for the deaths of over 60 people in October 2003, has reached a critical point.


WE NEED YOUR HELP.

We are re-initiating our online petition and are asking if you could forward it onto any contact lists, list serves or organizations which would be willing to support us. The aim is to collect 10,000 signatures by April 1, 2006.
