NGOs and the 'Naparra' family will demand recognition as victims of terrorism
The Spanish Ministry of the Interior has twice rejected this recognition, although the UN acknowledged its case in 2014.
The Basque Observatory for Human Rights, with the approval of the family of Jose Miguel Etxeberria Alvarez "Naparra", has made a new request for recognition as a victim of terrorism.
"Naparra", a member of the Anti-Capitalist Autonomous Commandos, disappeared on 11 June 1980. The controversy has arisen over the family's request to be removed after appearing at an exhibition at the Memorial Centre for Victims of Terrorism on missing persons for terrorism.
The Ministry of theInterior twice rejected in its application for recognition of José Miguel Etxeberria as a victim of terrorism in 2008 and 2013.
The UnitedNations Working Group on Forced or Involuntary Disappearances approved the case in 2014.
Now, the family is opposed to his case appearing in the memory center, as there are two hypotheses about the murder and disappearance of .
On the one hand, it is mentioned that the Autonomous Commandos said that it was the members of ETA who made it disappear, and on the other hand, it is explained that it was the Spanish Basque Battalion that proclaimed it and that the family accuses para-police violence of its disappearance.
The NGO believes that "against all historical foundations" is attributed the disappearance of ETA and asks itself, "So Jose Miguel Etxeberria is a victim of terrorism?" That being the case, they will again call for their appointment as victims of terrorism.
They have also asked the Spanish and French Governments to work to recover the remains of José Miguel Etxeberria and hand them over to his relatives.
