Orbaizetan Mikel Zabalzari egindako lore eskaintza. Argazkia: eitb.eus.

On 28 November, a commemorative event was held in Auritz/Burguete. The newspaper Naiz collects the following statements by Eneko Villegas on behalf of the platform Mikel Zabascengogoan: "We are all clear, Mikel was not killed by the water of the Bidasoa. He was killed by the water at Intxaurrondo's barracks. Today Mikel is not recognized as a victim of any kind. Today, their relatives have had neither truth, nor justice, nor reparation. It's part of the story, and we demand it." They call on the Government of Navarra to act resolutely on the path taken to recognize victims of police violence. In addition to the victims between 1980 and 1978, they asked him to investigate the other victims and to analyze the dimension of torture in Navarre.

Lourdes Zabenhancement: "They say you can't mourn without knowing the truth. We are waiting for it after 35 years. The page cannot be changed"

Media Kazeta interviewed the sister of Mikel Zabraise, Lourdes, who died. The version they received from the Civil Guard, the steps they took in those days and the way they have lived the subject in their homes for the last 35 years, among other things. He rightly states that: "In this country, it doesn't exist. In the state, tricks have a great force. They use the ETA excuse to justify anything. Who did the reports in the courthouse? Civil Guard. The reports the culprits were doing.
