Chile - July 19th, 2020 From the Temuco prison, 7 members of the Mapuche community join the hunger strike in support of the 20 political prisoners who have been fighting against the bloody Piñera government Freedom now to Facundo Jones Huala, Daniel Canio Tralcal, José Cáceres Salamanca, Juan Cheuqueta Cheuquepil, Fermín Márquez Inal, Cristhofer Pino Curin, Víctor Marileo Ancapi and all the political prisoners! The murderous Piñera government continues to keep political prisoners in the worst conditions in the dungeons of the bloody Pinochetista regime. It is not enough for this government of the exploiters to keep more than 2,500 fighters imprisoned to chastise all the workers, the rebellious youth and the exploited who are struggling to resume their revolutionary struggle. Now the government is letting 20 Mapuche political prisoners on hunger strike to die. Some of them, like comrade Celestino Córdova, have been on a hunger strike for more than two months and had to be hospitalized days ago due to the terrible deterioration of their health. Facing this situation, today 11 Mapuche political prisoners from the Comuneros Module of the Temuco prison have also started a hunger strike in support of the comrades and their fight for freedom. Thus, Daniel Canio Tralcal, Facundo Jones Huala, José Cáceres Salamanca, Juan Cheuqueta Cheuquepil, Fermín Márquez Inal, Cristhofer Pino Curin and Víctor Marileo Ancapi have joined this strike, denouncing that "theTerrorist State released criminals from the dictatorship and murderous pacos", while holding thousands of fighters hostage. We cannot allow for a minute more that our comrades remain incarcerated in the prisons of the repressors and executioners of the workers and the poor people! In every fight, demonstration, strike, barricade and from all the workers, students, human rights organizations, territorial assemblies, etc., in Chile, we must take into our hands the demand for their immediate freedom and carry out all kinds of actions to fight for the freedom of the comrades. Today more than ever, the international fight for the freedom of Chilean political prisoners must be redoubled. May all the workers and student organizations in the world raise their forces to fight to free the comrades imprisoned by the Pinochetista regime as part of the fight for the freedom of prisoners in Syria, Iran, Palestine and the entire Middle East, Sebastián Romero in Argentina, Giannis Michailidis and all the Greek prisoners, the comrades imprisoned in the Senkata massacre in Bolivia and all the political prisoners in the world.
