Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

This Thursday at 19:00 on Louis XIV Square in San Juan de Luz, Bake Bidea has arranged an appointment to ask for the repatriation of Jakes Esnal, a man who has been in prison for 32 years. In fact, on 19 May, they intend to analyse the prisoner ' s request for parole in Paris.

On 9 March, he announced that the French Court of Cassation estimated Esnal’s appeal. In this regard, the Paris Call Hearing will look at the request for parole on 19 May. In September 2020, this court did not want to analyse the request and that is why its defence postponed the appeal.

Last week the Paris Criminal Enforcement Tribunal examined for the sixth time the request for conditional release of political prisoner Ion Parot. The Prosecutor once again opposed it because he believed it was too early to take the prisoner out.

Answers in June

The next main quote was June 11 in Bake Bidea. A demonstration in Baiona to ask about the arrival of Esnal, Parot and the Basque prisoners. Then the judgments on Parot and Esnal are known.

The organizers want it to be a "mass expression of the diversity of this territory", a "multiple commitment" and a "declaration of the need for anticipation" in favour of this peace process.
