The relatives of Txiki and Otaegi believe that the act of Congress falls short

50 años de los fusilamientos de 'Txiki’ y Otaegi: las familiares reivindican memoria y reconocimiento

Pictures of Txiki and Otaegi on an ikurriña.

This Saturday it became known that the Congress of Deputies of Spain will hold an act of homage to the last five victims shot by Francoism, including 'Txiki' and Otaegi.

Today EITB has been able to talk to their relatives and they are not at all satisfied with the form that will be given to the event.

The event, which will be a talk between two writers in a Congress hall, is "scarce" for the relatives of "Txiki "and Otaegi, as they have told Radio Euskadi.

Family members believe that the opportunity has been missed. They believe that now that 50 years have passed since the shooting, what Congress and the Spanish Government should do should be to recognize themselves as victims.

They haven't even been invited to the event.

Thefeature La Noche más larga, Txiki eta Otaegi can be seen on the EITB à la carte portal.
