On April 10, an anonymous group decided to demolish a huge metal structure located in the Simon Bolivar square, on San Pablo avenue, destroying a series of cameras and surveillance infrastructure that was installed to observe the population.
The action took place before the commemoration of the fall in combat of Erick and Ivan Palacios, which is remembered every April with fire and street agitation. The action was vindicated by “Some shadows in the night”.
Claim
Sabotage to the panopticon of power
In the early morning of Sunday April 10 we went to the Simon Bolivar square in Quinta Normal to demolish several cameras of the power and police that were on a 2-story metal pole in which there were 3 cameras.
We claim this sabotage a few days before commemorating 33 years of the fall in combat of the combatants Erick Rodriguez and Ivan Palacios at the hands of the C.N.I.* in an ambush in an attempted action to knock out an eletric transformer in the San Pablo and Radal avenues, this in the same neighborhood Simon Bolivar on April 18, 1989.
Remembering compas fallen in action for their path and decision to attack power is always a revolutionary act of living memory.
Also to send a strong embrace of solidarity to all those who resist the captivity of prison around the world because of the confrontation with power.
We call for the sabotage of the panopticon, to take out the control and the blockade of our neighborhoods, against the state and capital.
