“His mouth closed is torture today,” he criticized, as he believes that political leaders should acknowledge the existence of these practices and assume their responsibilities, because in his opinion he would mean “a major contribution to the democratic side by side in Euskal Herria.”
EH Bildu has criticized the “thunderous silence” that exists around torture and has demanded that political responsibilities are adopted after a Judgment of the National Court has determined that the former chief of the missing ETA Iratxe Sorzabal He was subject to poor treatment after his arrest.
In a statement on Monday, the sovereign formation referred to this judicial resolution that Sorzabal acquires a devastation crime when proven by the authorship of this attack adopted by the civilian guard to torture.
“Shocking today is covering torture,” said Eh Bildu, while he believes that political leaders should recognize the existence of these practices and assume their responsibilities, because in his opinion he would mean “a major contribution to the democratic coexistence in Euskal Herria.”
“The silence of some and the cloak of impunity”
In this context, EH Bildu pointed out that “the silence of some political and institutional leaders, as well as media, is very important.”
“Those who do nothing but pontifying about human rights and the so -called ethical soil remain in a thunderous silence, which currently translates into an accomplice action” and “dives into the mantle of impunity with which he has acted with torture,” he complains.
In that sense, EH Bildu has warned that “without truth recognition and repair it is not possible to build a real democratic coexistence.”
Finally, he believes that the opinion of the National Court verifies two “realities”: on the one hand that “countless Basque citizens, in addition to suffering on torture, were imprisoned for statements obtained under these terrible and inhumane treatment” and, on the other hand, confirm “confirm” Torturers, who still no responsibility “.
