For the second consecutive day and despite the violent repression of the Gildo Insfrán police, a crowd of people again mobilized this Saturday in the capital of Formosa to reject the tightening of the quarantine for the coronavirus.

"No more phase 1,"

read one of the posters with which dozens of people from Formosa marched again towards the provincial Government House, where the security forces once again erected a perimeter fence.

During the protest, neighbors and merchants reiterated that they will not comply with the isolation measures ordered from the provincial government.

That reaction was reflected this Friday night, when many gastronomic places

opened their doors

despite the prohibitions.

"We want our freedom in Formosa, we want to be free, we do not want the government to give us our bread, we want to earn our bread ourselves. We are tired, this province belongs to the people of Formosa, not the politicians on duty," claimed one of the protesters .

And he criticized the Insfrán government because "it sends the police to repress us."

The Police keep the provincial capital armored.

The Peronist councilor Gabriela Neme was once again participating in the mobilization, despite the injuries she suffered yesterday from the repression. 

Shortly after the mobilization started, the first pronouncement of President Alberto Fernández was known about the serious episodes that occurred the day before in that province.

"We were very concerned about the institutional violence we saw,"

said the Head of State in statements to the press in Mendoza, where he is on an official visit.
