violence in Mexico has soared. Fernando Escalante Monsalbo researcher published in the latest issue of the magazine Nexos a study based on figures from the National Institute of Statistics, Geography and Informatics (INEGI), which shows an increase in homicides in the country up to 50 percent for what he published a year earlier, when he said that the killings had declined systematically.
acknowledges that between 2008 and 2009, in the second year of government of Felipe Calderón broke the trend in a very violent and says, without finishing recognize that this has to do with the way it has dealt with organized crime and linked to the declaration of war. And if growth is not related to the killings in the war then? The conclusion is simple, these figures are hidden femicide and violence against women, that between 2009 and June 2010 took the lives of 728 thousand women.
Why Escalante took as a reference? For their study, published over a year ago caused, face the facts and figures, a scandal, because he believed only Hector Aguilar Camin, who is on the idea that we in the democratic transition and now Felipe Calderon does not know what to do about the elections in the State of Mexico, on 6 July, where the battle will be more important by 2012.
The truth is that the news of the refusal of the National System to Prevent, Treat, Punishment and Eradication of Violence Against Do Something (SNPASEVM) to establish the gender alert in the State of Mexico, has shown ever the legal limit according to reality not to look interested in what's happening in that region, which, not being only, is an area where death is allowed and everybody wants to hide, to get along with Enrique Peña Nieto, the former elected state party.
In the land of Peña Nieto nothing happens. It can be interpreted as the 20 PRI officials who run institutes of women agreed that there was no need to declare Warning against gender violence in Mexico state land.
course, these officials directly and indirectly attached to the Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI), women who have achieved, sometimes as part of a cabinet, get the desired place where decisions are made, many wish that they strenuously.
In the State of Mexico there is an Institute for Women and now concentrate some former militant feminists who are advising the electoral program of the next candidate or candidate for governor.
There, where two years have documented the murders of 446 women, where there are at least six municipalities in real danger, the same place where crime rates have soared and more than 30 000 unfulfilled arrest warrants related to executions, kidnappings, murders, injury, robbery and rape women. Yes, the State of Mexico where, they said, it is not necessary to declare gender alert.
On 8 December, the Mexican Commission for the Defense and Promotion of Human Rights and the Centre National City Femicide SNPASEVM asked before, a declaration warning of violence against women in the State of Mexico mechanism created from the General Law on Women's Access to a Life Free of Violence, in order to investigate and take immediate and comprehensive measures to eradicate violence femicide detected in that state.
The answer was surprising. On January 11 the National groundlessly decided in special session, denied the validity of the request. They said no, why not? No one knows who eats whom, because in the meantime also in the halls grew calderonistas hides how femicide in the country and seek explanations or neuro biologists to explain the violence that men exercise over women.
The worst, say the statements that have typically faced with the inexplicable decision, annulling the possibility of setting a precedent for operate a mechanism of law, aimed at protecting Mexican femicide violence and denied all diagnostic studies that place the state of Mexico, as one where discrimination against women and lack of appreciation of women has led to growing femicide and maim thousands of lives and left thousands of orphaned children, while the current government has not resolved the impunity that surrounds it.
Women organized protest and speak out now: the determination made was contrary to international standards of protection to a life free of violence, strengthen the pattern of impunity and discrimination and shows that in Mexico may have laws, but while there is no real change of consciousness and commitment, we can not consent to the authorities, as they are justified and conscious when only doing their duty, if applicable.
What was sought with the Alert? The aim was to initiate an investigation, arrest offenders, to take precautionary measures in dangerous places and save lives. Not only try to stop violence against women and their murders, but to operate security, so born and brought in the empty speeches.
review This was the 546 murders, access to records, to accountability, such as when requested in Chihuahua since 1993. It disregarded the request and the result was fatal, the incompetence and contempt are unspeakable.
phrases even technocratic "change the pattern of impunity", they were not heard. The truth is that now this decision highlights the limits of the women who get these positions, have preferred to protect their likely candidate to pursue what many officials of Women's Institutes preach. They not only cover up and manipulate, but are part of the overall simulation.
is true that no tools or money, are limited in their speeches, some argue, "we are so few" and "not ignore us," well then, as she said in his famous phrase businessman Alejandro Marti yes can not renounce. "
The scary thing is what happens and what we know. Of all victims authority says that in 99 cases are not identified. Then I remember the Chihuahua and officials of the femicide in Ciudad Juárez and the thousand and one classifications, whether or not femicide, if they were for reasons of gender, if in fact they are mass murderers and meanwhile continues this barbarism.
is serious to the major shortcomings of the justice system, one of the few ideal protection mechanisms with which women and civil society in the hands of political interests and authorities to in power. This is one of rams in the electoral political discussion, no doubt. We need more pressure.
In these days there will be solidarity with the Mexican in many parts of the world, insists on new legal mechanisms such as modification of the General Law Women's Access to a Life Free of Violence to include citizen participation and academic in the National System for the purpose of ensuring fair and effective mechanism.
also calls for the amendment of the Rules of the Act to eliminate requirements that go beyond those established by the Act and requires that the Women's Institutes are led by women committed to the rights women themselves and not to political interests.
The National Citizens' Watch Femicide has documented the severity of the problem in the State of Mexico; diagnoses that the Interior Ministry has shelved and despised, could be the start of a global solution, provided it is held accountable. Funny how you can manipulate the information in the television stations that benefit from these hiding and how it diverts attention from fundamental problems. Meanwhile we will see this year in Mexico State land, the dance of the speeches and a constant battle.
