On Tuesday, January 3, 15 years were commemorated since the murder of the weichafe Matías Catrileo in 2008 at the hands of the carabinero Walter Ramírez while armed confrontations were taking place in a territorial recovery in the former Santa Margarita estate (owned by the Luchsinger families).
For this new day of memory and combat, there was the deployment of banners and propaganda in different parts of the local territory; a concentration in Alameda at the height of Cerro Huelen where barricades were set up and confrontations with Molotov;
After armed confrontations in Villa Francia, a policewoman was shot in her helmet and had to be taken to the hospital. In the following days, an investigation was carried out at the site to search for those responsible. Also a RED bus was stopped and completely burned by hooded comrades.
Banners read:
“Matías Catrileo, Assassinated Mapuche”, “Wallmapu free of assassins, Resist nation people”, “César Mallea present”, “Remind me that I only want to live to be free, Matias Katrlieo present”, “Weichafe Matias Catrileo lives in the ¡¡¡weichan!!!!! 2008 – 2023”, “May we join the desire to go against the kingdom, the rifle that keeps annihilating entering my house, raping”, “Fight like the rabbit”.
