Buenos Aires, 21 april '03 - (ANRed) - The journalist Miguel Bonasso confirmed tonight that during the represion in front if the company Brukman the Argentina Federal Police used leaden bullets when shot the demonstrators. The journalist who was detained at the service station of Jujuy-Independencia showed the 'cartidges' (container of the bullet) to the TV cameras. They were red and he
said "these are leaden bullets, caliber 12.70". Moreover, he said that tomorrow Thuesday the announcement will be made to court and that it is 'a delict of public action'.
The centre of Legal and Social Studies (CELS) demands the "exclusion of any kind of activity" in the control of Brukman of the commissary Carlos Roncati, responsible for the operative in front of the company that ended with violent incidents for the suspicion of the existence of 'illegal repression'. The CELS based his demand on the fact that "we have received denouncements during the intervention of the police in the Brukman company about: the use of cartridges with leaden bullets -identificated by their red color-", and the existence of "vehiculs and police personnel without identification". The centre asked Juan José Alvarez (minister of justice, security and human rights) that ROncati would be separated moreover because he was also the head of the operation that on March the 26th repressed demonstrators 'illegally', who were exercising their constitutional rights, in front of the National Congress." To both the public pronouncements that anticipated the presentation of prouve to justice about the use of leaden
bullets, the agency could prouve at 14.30 that "to the pelotones of the Infantery
presented in the area were added 10 motorcycles with two infantes both provocing
great concern due to their red cartridges that were visibles on their shoulders".
The containers for "operation against disturbances" are green cartridges, while the ones for leaden bullets are red." At this hour Roncati didn't gave any explanation about these facts, neither has he nor his inmediate commands.

Informs from their lawyers:
The workers of Brukman, Mariana Salomón and Miryam Bregman denounced in a meeting that was held with the judge Rimondi that ordered the eviction, on Fryday in the Commissary n 8
that the effectives standing in the area of the workplace were holding municions 12.70, being leaden bullets, which was not denied by the judge.
nvdr:
To put it clear:
Since the ending of the military capitalist dictatorship...
-uniformed police used to use rubber bullets, which also kill but with less probability
-leaden bullets used to be in hands of para-police (who torture, sequestrate, threat and kill) and paraestetale groups.
