The French Justice Minister, Nicole Belloubet, has been in Baiona on Thursday, where she has come to meet on the G7. Following the visit of the minister, he was asked about the release of the Basque prisoner Frederic Haranburu Xistor. Belloubet refused to talk about it.
Asked by Iparralde journalists about the situation of the Basque prisoner Frederic Haranburu Xistor, the French Minister of Justice, Nicole Belloubet, replied: “I do not take a position on pending litigation.”
Xistor has long been called on to release on parole. So far, the Ministry of Justice has submitted itself to the position of the State Prosecutor. In fact, the prosecutor has argued that “the liberation of Haranburu would attack public order.” According to Bake Bidea, this attitude of the prosecutor “strongly denies that a peace process has been opened in Euskal Herria”. The President of the Basque Commonwealth, Jean-René Etchegaray, once again regretted that the prosecutor said: “Releasing Xistor would attack public order.” “It is absurd to hear that the freedom of the Basque prisoner does not guarantee that he will take up arms again,” Etchegaray added for the umpteenth time.
Haranburu has served thirty years in prison. On 5 September, an appeal trial was held in Paris on the request for his release. The decision of the court will be announced on 8 October.
In addition to the Xistor prisoner, French justice will have to decide in September on several Basque prisoners. On the 11th, the second court session will be held in which the petition for parole from Josu Urrutikoetxea will be raised. Lorentza Beirie's petition for freedom will be discussed on Day 12. On the 25th, the Supreme will decide whether to suspend the sentence of the prisoner Ibon Fernández, who is in serious health.
“Saihestu egingo dira giza eskubideen, ordenamendu juridikoaren eta espetxeetako tratamendu psikosozialaren aurkako balioak eta jarrerak babestea, justifikatzea eta goratzea ekar dezaketen adierazpenak”, dio, besteak beste, agiriak. Azaroan Eusko Jaurlaritzako... [+]
Asteazken eguerdian berreskuratu du askatasuna astigartarrak, zigorra osorik beteta. Espainiako Auzitegi Nazionalak otsailean inputatu zuen ETAren zuzendaritzako ustezko beste lau kiderekin batera, Gregorio Ordoñezen hilketa leporatuta.
Martxoaren 13an lau urte bete dira Fran Balda arbizuarra istripuz hil zela. Preso, iheslari eta deportatuen etxeratzearen alde egin zuen lan, eta haren bost kidek idatzi diote gutun hau.
Frantziako Poliziak 2002an atxilotu zuen zumarragarra, eta 30 urteko zigorra betetzen ari da. Sare Herritarrak mobilizazioa deitu du datorren ostiralerako, Urretxuko Potros Plazan.
Iratxeren Bidasoaldeko Lagunak ekimenak deituta, dozenaka lagun kalera atera ziren atzo Iratxe Sorzabal preso politiko irundarraren absoluzioa eskatzeko eta behingoz etxera ekartzeko, torturak salatzeaz gain.
Sare Herritarrak antolatuta, pasa den urtarrilaren 11n Bilboko kaleak bete zituen manifestazio jendetsuaren ondoren, berriz sortu da eztabaida, euskal presoei salbuespen legeriarik aplikatzen ote zaion. Gure iritzia azaltzen saiatuko gara.
