Do you remember two filmmakers were abused during another event regarding distributing land to the Guarani people?
Two filmmakers kidnapped and mistreated in Santa Cruz department
MONTREAL, April 18 /CNW Telbec/ - Reporters Without Borders condemns the
mistreatment that two documentary filmmakers - Tanimbu Estremadoiro and her
Argentine colleague Fernando Cola - received from residents of Cuevo, in the
eastern department of Santa Cruz, on 13 April.
They were kidnapped and subjected to physical violence during a clash
between government representatives and local landowners in a region where much
of the population supports calls for autonomy and is fiercely opposed to the
government in La Paz.
"All those trying to settle scores by attacking the press should have
learned from the death of Carlos Quispe on 29 March as a result of an attack
on Radio Municipal Pucarani (see 8 April release)," Reporters Without Borders
said. "The way Fernando Cola and Tanimbu Estremadoiro were treated shows that
the current political and social conflicts continue to expose journalists to
serious risks."
The press freedom organisation added: "We hope that justice will be
quickly rendered in this case and that the political class, especially those
in the regions that are pressing for autonomy, will undertake to ensure
respect for press freedom."
Cola and Estremadoiro, who are members of the Centre for Legal Studies
and Social Investigation (CEJIS) and the International Work Group for
Indigenous Affairs, a Danish NGO, are making a documentary about land
conflicts in Bolivia. On 13 April, they were accompanying a government
delegation that is in charge of distributing land to Guarani indigenous
peasants.
A group of local landowners opposed to agrarian reform blocked the
delegation's access to Cuevo, a locality near the city of Santa Cruz. When the
confrontation turned violent, Cola was captured. He was kicked repeatedly,
stones were thrown at him and his camera was smashed. He finally escaped from
his assailants and found refuge in the home of a local resident where soldiers
rescued him the next day.
