A new wave of protests unfolds this Sunday night in Formosa.
There are around three thousand people in the center of the capital city of the province.
It is the third day of demonstrations after the Gildo Insfrán police repression of the protesters who had come out to reject the
tightening of the quarantine
on Friday
.
The National Human Rights Secretariat - headed by Horacio Pietragalla - had spoken out on Friday after the police repression that ended with injuries and more than 90 detainees and, although it repudiated the violence, spoke of
"a smear campaign"
against the Governor of Formosa.
In the same vein, Security Minister Sabina Frederic also rejected the repression in the last hours, but understood that there is
"cruelty with the Gildo Insfrán government that is inadmissible"
and a "systematic provocation."
In this sense, Frederic described Patricia Bullrich - former Minister of Security - as
"hypocritical" and "cynical"
and questioned her for speaking of human rights when "she defended the police protocol of shooting without giving a stop order."
Precisely, the protest of these hours in Formosa has the presence of Patricia Bullrich, president of the PRO, and the national senator
Luis Naidenoff,
among other leaders of Together for Change.
"We are starting the freedom tour here," said the president of PRO.
The series of protests - unprecedented in Insfrán's 25 years in power - began as a
popular reaction
to the return to phase 1 of the sanitary controls in the capital city and the resistance of merchants, which added to the complaints about the violations of human rights in the isolation centers by Covid installed in the province.
