'Oinez ikasi orduko, hegan egiten ahantzi' Anari

there was a girl, there was a society


There was a girl, a young girl, and her name was Urtza, from Ondarru in Basqueland, and she happened to be politically active.

One day the government decided she was a terrorist and sent the police to arrest her and prove that she was, in a part of the world where, as Amnesty International reports year in year out, torture is not only not prosecuted but encouraged. No wonder she confessed she was a terrorist! Later on she said she said so because she was tortured. Too late, she had already confessed, she had to go to jail for 5 years.

There was a society which decided it would take situations like this no more. And they gathered around Urtza to protect her from the police, with nothing to gain but dignity and a great deal to lose. And today, I thought I'd let you know, is the 5th day in which anonymous people are protecting this girl by standing or sitting next to each other and around her while she is in the middle of this bridge, waiting for the police to come.
