Between 19 and 27 May, more than 60 popular movements and unions from Euskal Herria organized in Donostia the week of the social struggles Bizia Da Handia, "to deal with the policies that are being imposed from power against the majority of citizens and by a minority".
They have denounced that for a week the citizen dynamics received a repressive response to the situation created. The Department of the Interior has imposed a fine of 100 euros for the implementation of the Mordaza Law that occurred on 24 May before the headquarters of the Basque Government in Hernani Street to denounce the arrests in Tabakalera, alleging a concentration and holding one of those present responsible, although at that time no one was identified.
"Thus, BDH has decided not to pay this fine based on the lie and calls on the government and the Ertzaintza to act with disobedience before the Moorish law imposed by the pp, which have also rejected the Basque Parliament, the Provincial Council of Gipuzkoa and the City Council of Donostia, which is the main way to add to the will."
Four citizens in the process
In addition, during the protest held with Tabakalera, the Ertzaintza identified a large number of people, two of whom are in trial.
Finally, the Ertzaintza identified another member of the BDH dynamic who was next to her lawyer at the portal door. The two defendants are also in the process today, as the lawyer has been charged with the same facts.
