Burundi's forgotten victims - online petition for an end to impunity

22-08-2003 06:56

My sister Charlotte was one of more than 300,000 civilians killed in Burundi's vicious civil war. Her death was exceptional only for the fact that it was noticed by the international media (ie.  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1093135.stm). By and large, the world ignores Burundi. By and large, Burundi's elite is content to allow the killers to kill with impunity. My family is campaigning for justice for all of Burundi's forgotten victims.  http://www.petitiononline.com/Burundi/

critical developments in Guatemala

21-08-2003 07:53

The dispute over whether General Efrain Ríos Montt can run for president has dramatically escalated. Today [July 24], in a coordinated campaign of violence, busloads of followers of Ríos Montt, including paramilitaries, entered the capital city and attacked groups of people, journalists, and critics of the general. They have threatened media offices and human rights organizations. Héctor Ramírez, a journalist, died of a heart attack while escaping from an aggressive mob, and other journalists narrowly escaped lynching. This very dangerous development may be the prelude to a coup.
