We are publishing an unofficial translation of a statement issued by CEBRASPO from Brazil on the occasion of 30 August.

The Brazilian Centre for Solidarity with Peoples (CEBRASPO) demands and participates in the campaign: PRESENT DR. SERNAS ALIVE!

On 10 May 2018, Dr Ernesto Sernas García, professor at the Universidad Autonoma Benito Juárez de Oaxaca (UABJO), essayist, researcher, professor, activist and defender of the rights of the people, disappeared.

As part of this important campaign for justice and the life of Dr. Sernas, we express here our sincere rejection of the old Mexican state, which did nothing for the presentation of Dr. Sernas and was complicit in his disappearance.

Dr. Sernas is a democrat who at no time shirked his responsibilities by carrying out the important legal defence of the activists and militants of the deep masses of Mexico.

CEBRASPO and various democratic organisations in Brazil have been denouncing his disappearance for years and have been carrying out actions to protest and reject this crime against this lawyer of the people.

DR. SERNAS PRESENTS HIM ALIVE!

ALIVE THEY TOOK HIM, WE WANT HIM BACK ALIVE!
