Searching for Patricia Heras This post maybe is not as happy as my first post here, but I want to share with all the people here in italki something that happened in 4 of february in 2006. That was a hard day for four people whose human rights were violated. They were detained illegally. I am going to try to explain the things. That 4th of february night in a street near the centre town of Barcelona had a closed theater and it was illegally occupied by people (the movement is called okupas) and they were having a very hard party (you know drugs, loud music...) and the police proceded to end this illegal party. That's was when someone who never was found threw a pot against the cops and hit one of them causing him really serious injuries and leaving him in a comma. Nowadays eight years after I don't know if the cop recovered from the injuries. Six people were arrested. Two of them never were in the street. But his clothes maybe, JUST MAYBE, were the same that the clothes from the people in the illegal party. They were arrested and tortured...the cops just want them recognised the crime. One of this two people was Patricia Heras, a woman who lived in Barcelona only for five months. One guy was hit on the arm and his hand was broken and never recovered totally All of the people were jailed because the judge found they were guilty without proves, without biological clues just because their appearance in Spain if you are two years in jail without a trial you can have probation until the trial. But all of them had problems when they get out the jail. Patricia was innocent, her only problem was her clothes, her style, she started to feel depressed and finally commited suicide in 2011. A bad THE END thing you know All the things I wrote here were detailed in a documentary called "Ciutat Morta" (Dead City) that explain all. The only thing I want you to know that Patricia Heras was innocent she was in the wrong place in the wrong time The cops that arrested all the guys later were convicted of torturing another guy (a black guy) only one year After this. What do you think about the okupa movement? Did you know about this facts happened in 2006? I am ashamed to say that I never knew about anything (I never heard about it in the news) and all I know was from the documentary Dead City that I wrote in lines above.
