The Navarre Government acknowledges seven other victims of torture
To date, 94 people have been officially recognized by the Government of Navarre as victims of political violence under the Foral Law 16/2019. The dynamics of the Network of Tortured Persons of Navarre and Egiari Zor have welcomed the resolutions and have called for further progress along this path.
The Governmentof Navarre, through the Commission for Reconnaissance and Reparation, has recognized seven other persons from the Foral Community as victims of torture and, with them, 94 persons have so far been officially recognized under the Foral Act.
This has been reported by the dynamic , which consists of the Network of Tortured Persons of Navarre and Egiari Zor, and has explained that they have welcomed the resolutions "because they are useful in making visible the impact of violence in the State".
Indeed, they believe that in order to advance as a society in the collective task of building a truly democratic coexistence and to develop public policies that commit to an inclusive memory, "it is essential to make known without exception everything that has happened in the context of politically motivated violence in Navarre".
They therefore consider the path taken by the Navarre Government over the past five years to be "useful" and therefore call on it to "continue to deepen this line, on which further progress is essential in order to put an end to impunity linked to state violence in Navarre and throughout Euskal Herria".
This time the persons recognized as victims are Polentzi Goikoetxea Barandiaran (tortured twice by the Civil Guard and the Political Social Brigade in 1980; Jose Maria Aleman Zabaleta (tortured by the Civil Guard in 1982); Jon Patxi Arratibel Garziandia (tortured by the Civil Guard in 1997 and 2011); Leire Markina Rey (tortured by the Spanish National Police in 1999 and Civil Guard in 2001); Luis Goñi Lara (tortured by the Civil Guard in 1997 and 2011).
To date, 94 persons have been officially recognized as victims of political violence under the Foral 16/2019 Act. 6 deaths (one of them as a result of torture); 61 torture; 19 persons with physical and/or psychological injuries; 2 persons with material damage; 1 person tortured with physical injuries and material damage; 1 person tortured with material damage; and 4 persons with physical and/or psychological injuries and material damage.
