Débora Meyer, wife of Martín Soriani.

"And we ask all politicians, prosecutors and judges to try to do their job, to make an effort, we are here and we are not having a good time.

The Mapuches claim the territory as their own based on an alleged scam of which the original owner,
Félix Gallardo Calfú
, was the
victim in 1980 by Miguel Soriani.
Throughout these four decades, the Gallardo Calfú resorted to the Río Negro justice on three occasions, but the magistrates' decisions worked in favor of the Soriani, the family reported.

the Judge of Guarantees Ricardo Calcagno did not agree
to the eviction request requested by the prosecutor Francisco Arrien pending the arrest of Blanca Rosa Gallardo and Juan Carlos Oyarzo, the leaders of the take, who were considered in absentia by not attending the courts in El Bolsón.
This Monday will take place the challenge hearing by the prosecutor before Judge Marcelo Álvarez Melinger, provincial sources reported.
