The column that was part of the so-called 7th March for the Sovereignty of Lago Escondido, led by

Father Francisco Paco Olveira and doctor Jorge Rachid

, reached the area of ​​the house of Joe Lewis' businessman, after three days of walking through the mountain, not without physical and psychological consequences.

The around 50 Kirchner and leftist protesters arrived at the sector where the British mansion stands, exhausted by the process, lacking water and food.

Some of them were on the verge of fainting, as this newspaper was able to find out.

This meant that

two helicopters and two ambulances were made available to attend to the protesters

.

One of them, visibly affected, had to be taken by vehicle to the El Bolsón hospital with symptoms of dehydration.

Surprisingly,

Rachid, who seemed tired like the rest, took advantage of the fact that the ambulance was taking the young woman away to get on himself

and leave the property and those who had followed him to the place.

In this way, the leader and official left the sector in an action more typical of a fugitive or a spy.

The protesters demand that the government of Río Negro, led by Arabela Carreras, that they go to rescue them by helicopter to Lewis's mansion.

The province does not have one and does not have in its budget to rent ships for this operation, unless the Nation pays for it, it was revealed.

At the moment it is unknown if Rachid, Milagros Sala's doctor and the man who assured that at the beginning of the pandemic land in Patagonia would have to be exchanged for the Pfizer vaccine, is in the area or has already traveled to Buenos Aires.

The other militants stayed together on the grass of Lewis' private property where they began an impromptu camp.

But they have already warned that if they are not rescued by air or finally let out by the Tacuifí road, which is blocked by the Patagonian gauchos, they

will start a hunger strike.

Some would have already started with the measure, including Father Paco

.

In the priest's version, his strike began 24 hours ago and he only drinks mate and water.

He also clarified that he is in good health.

The priest De Olveira and his people denounced that there is loud music in the environment and defined it as "psychological torture."

The prevention operation in the province of includes this Friday, February 3, about 100 agents of the Río Negro Police and several mobile phones.

The organization of the march arrived with at least two ambulances and they were accompanied by two other helicopters.

"The helicopters are not from the province," clarifies a source from Río Negro.

Vehicles with patents that would correspond to the Ministry of Security of the Province of Buenos Aires were also seen.

After the altercation between demonstrators and gauchos in the area of ​​the Tacuifí road gate, this past February 2, the organizers demanded the resignation of the Minister of Security of Río Negro, Betiana Minor, and its Chief of Police, Osvaldo Telleria, for “omitting to act” in the face of the “attacks carried out”.

The militants assure that the police did not intervene during the advance of the baqueanos who dispersed a group with their horses.

At this time the militants of the march are in El Bolsón where they walk the streets handing out pamphlets and holding banners against Joe Lewis.

As Clarín was able to find out, another group of gauchos on horseback was organizing to go to the town.

"In the El Foyel area, no one was left, everyone went to El Bolsón where they would be demonstrating," Pablo Puchi, one of the leaders of the Baqueanos in the area, told this outlet.

In November 2022, the gauchos of El Bolsón and its surroundings expelled from the center of the town some militants of the Mapuche cause who were causing destruction.
