1 | Spain: Brutal Police Repression Against Journalists Covering “Secular March” | Espana: Famoretana An-kerisetra Nataon'ny Polisy Tamin'ny Mpanao Gazety Nitatitra ny “Diabe Laika” |
2 | The police's brutal response [es] to the protests Madrid, Spain, which started since the beginning of the month and came into full force with the detention of journalist Gorka Ramos [es] (subsequently freed [es]), has led to a disproportionate persecution of journalists and reporters [es] covering the protests. | Ny valin-kafatra mahery setran'ny polisy [es] tamin'ireo hetsi-panoherana tao Madrid, Espana, izay nanomboka tany amin'ny fiandohan'ny volana tany, ary tonga tanatin'ny heriny niaraka tamin'ny fitànana ilay mpanao gazety, Gorka Ramos [es] (efa navotsotra [es]), no nitondra taminà haza lambo tsy nifandanja nahazo ireo mpanao gazety sy mpanao tatitra [es] nandrakotra ilay hetsika. |
3 | Repression was unleashed during the Secular March [es] on August 17, sparked by the Pope's recent visit [es] to Spain. | Tapaka lamboridy ny famoretana nandritra ny Diabe Laika [es] tamin'ny 17 Aogositra, nentanin'ilay fitsidihana vao haingana teo nataon'ny Papa [es] tao Espana. |
4 | But, what is the “Secular March”? | Saingy, inona moa ny “Diaben'ny Laika”? |
5 | Francisco Blanco Prieto explains [es] in his blog: | i Francisco Blanco Prieto no manazava [es] ao amin'ny bilaoginy: |
6 | It is not a demonstration that is anti-God, anti-Pope, anti-Rouco [Archbishop of Madrid], anti-religion, nor anti-Christian. | Tsy fihetsiketsehana fanoherana an'Andriamanitra, na fanoherana ny Papa, na i Rouco [Arsevekan'i Madrid], na ny fivavahana, na ny Kristiana io akory. |
7 | It is a march in defense of the Constitution dedicated to a secular State, freed from subventions, interferences, submission, condemnations and blessings from all doctrines, whatever they may be. | Diabe ho fiarovana ny Lalampanorenana izay mametraka fitondrana Laika, tsy misy fitsabatsabahana, na fanelingelenana, na fanompoana, na fanamelohana na tso-drano avy aminà foto-pinoana izatsy sy izaroa, na toy inona na toy inona izy ireny. |
8 | Nevertheless, this protest was accused [es] of being “intolerant” and an act of provocation [es]. | Kanefa, io hetsika io dia nampangaina [es] ho “tsy fandeferana” sy fihetsika fandranitana [es]. |
9 | With these antecedents, it was almost logical to expect some type of confrontation between those in favor of the Secular March and members of the 2011 World Youth Day who also marched in the surrounding area of Madrid's square Puerta del Sol at the same time. | Noho ireo tranga fahiny tany aloha, somary azo an-tsaina ihany ny hitranganà karazam-pifanoherana toy izany eo amin'ireo mpomba ilay Diabe Laika sy ireo mpikambana ao amin'ny Andro Manerantany ho an'ny Tanora 2011 izay nanao diabe ihany koa nanodidina ny faritry ny Kianja Puerta del Sol ao Madrid taminà fotoana mitovy. |
10 | The event finally concluded with a harsh police reaction [es] against the 4000 to 8000 protestors. | Ilay hetsika dia niafàra tamin'ny fidirana an-tsehatra mahery vaika nataon'ny polisy [es] nifanandrina tamin'ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana efa ho 4000 hatramin'ny 8000. |
11 | Nonetheless, something that was not expected were the actions taken by the police against the journalists in charge of covering the events. | Na izany aza, zavatra tsy nampoizina ny hetsika nataon'ny polisy tamin'ireo mpanao gazety voatendry handrakotra ilay zava-nitranga. |
12 | Pau Llop from Bottup [es], a site of citizen journalism in Spain, tells us about the police's violent strategy to quiet journalists and witnesses of their citizen repression in an article titled: “Ahora te vamos a pegar sin que te vean, ‘periolisto'” (“Now we're going to beat you while no one is watching, you clever journalist”) [es]: | Pau Llop avy amin'ny Bottup [es], vohikala iray ho an'ny fampitam-baovaon'olon-tsotra ao Espana, dia niteny mikasika ny tetikady mahery setra nataon'ny polisy hampanginana ireo mpanao gazety sy ireo nanatri-maso ny famoretana nataon'izy ireo tamin'ny olon-tsotra, ao anatin'ny lahatsoratra iray nampitondraina ny lohateny hoe: “Ahora te vamos a pegar sin que te vean, ‘periolisto'” (“Darohanay ialahy isany androany rehefa tsy misy mahita, ialahy isany mpanao gazety be atidoha ireo”) [es]: |
13 | “It hurts, huh? | “Maharary an, sa tsy izany? |
14 | Now you will really feel how badly…” They caused me so much pain. | Ankehitriny ho fantatrao tsara ny haratsiny…” Tena nanao izay hampangirifiry mafy ahy ry zareo. |
15 | They slammed my head against the van door, with my hands behind my back. | Nadonan-dry zareo tamin'ny varavaran'ny fiara ny lohako, ny tànako amin'izany voatàna any an-damosiko. |
16 | “I already told you that I was going to win the draw“ | “Efa niteny taminao aho fa tsy maintsy hahazo kibay“ |
17 | “If we tell you to hop, you hop, understood?“ | “Rehefa miteny aminao aho hoe mitsambikina, dia mitsmbikina, azo?“ |
18 | The title of this article, as well as the dialogue that opens it, are words recounted by two of the journalists who were assaulted by agents from the Police Intervention Unit (riot police) in the center of Madrid, barely meters from the Puerta del Sol, along the path of the secular demonstration - legal and authorized by the Delegation of the Government - against the spending of public funds for the Pope's visit from Rome to preside over the 2011 World Youth Day. | Ny lohatenin'ity lahatsoratra ity, hatramin'ny fifanakalozan-dresaka nentiny, dia teny nambaran'ireo mpanao gazety roa niharan'ny herisetran'ireo olona avy amin'ny Tarika Polisy Mpanao Be Midina (mpandrava korontana) tao afovoan'i Madrid, metatra vitsy monja miala ny Puerta del Sol, mandeha amin'ny làlan'ilay Diabe Laika - ara-dalàna ary nahazo alàlana avy amin'ny Delegasionan'ny Governemanta - manohitra ny fandaniana volam-bahoaka ateraky ny fitsidihan'ny Papa avy any Roma mba hitarika ny Andro Manerantany ho an'ny Tanora 2011. |
19 | In the following video from August 4, viewers can already observe the type of confrontations between the police and the demonstrators, including journalists [es]: | Ao anatin'ity lahatsary tamin'ny 4 Aogositra ity, azon'ny mpijery atao ny mahita sahady ny karazana fifandonana teo amin'ny polisy sy ny mpanao fihetsiketsehana, ka anisan'ireny ny mpanao gazety: |
20 | Accounts from some of the detained or assaulted journalists are also circulating on the Internet, such as that of Jonás Candalija [es] after being released from the police, and Lidia Ucher [es], a journalist that was also seen being struck by the police. | Mivezivezy any anaty aterineto any ihany koa ny fitantarana avy amin'ireo mpanao gazety sasany voatazona na voadaroka, toy ny an'i Jonás Candalija [es] taorian'ny namotsoran'ny polisy azy, ary ny an'i Lidia Ucher [es], vehivavy iray mpanao gazety izay hita nodarohan'ny polisy ihany koa. |

22 | This other video from Youtube user Miguelmandril [es] shows the police patrolling the streets of Madrid in search of protestors and the aggressive actions they take against those who they believe to have taken part in the demonstrations, as well as those who report on the events [es]: | Ity lahatsary iray ity, avy amin'ny mpampiasa Youtube, Miguelmandril [es] dia mampiseho polisy manao fisafoana ny araben'i Madrid mikaroka ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana, sy ny fomba mahery setra ataon-dry zareo amin'ireo izay nandray anjara tamin'ilay fihetsiketsehana, hatramin'ireo nitatitra ny zava-nitranga mihitsy koa aza: |
23 | In the publication Periodismo Humano (Humane Journalism), a note [es] can be found regarding the previous video, with commentary from the journalist who was hit after photographing the police aggression against an adolescent girl walking along the street. | Ao anatin'ny famoahan'ny Periodismo Humano (Fanaovan-gazety Amin'ny Maha-olona), misy fanamarihana [es] iray azo jerena mikasika ilay lahatsary teo aloha, miaraka aminà fanazavàna avy amin'ilay mpanao gazety voadaroka taorian'ny nakàny sary ilay herisetra nataon'ny polisy taminà tovovavy iray nizotra teny an'arabe. |
24 | There are already some who are asking for proof of identification (TIP) from police officers and riot agents [es] as a result of these events. | Vokatr'ireo zava-nitranga ireo dia efa nisy sahady ny sasany mangataka mba hatao hita mazava tsara ny mari-pamantarana (TIP) ny polisy sy ireo olona mpandrava korontana [es]. |

26 | Youtube user periodistadigital [es] has uploaded various videos, among them one of which shows the verbal encounters between the participants of the Secular March and the members of the Catholic youth, and another that portrays the police repression that followed [es]: | Ilay mpampiasa Youtube, periodistadigital [es], dia nampakatra lahatsary samihafa, isan'ireny ny iray izay mampiseho fifamaliana am-bava teo amin'ny mpandray anjara tamin'ny Diabe Laika sy ny mpikambana avy amin'ny tanora Katolika, ary iray hafa maneho ny famoretana nataon'ny polisy taorian'izay [es] : |
27 | In August alone already six journalists have denounced police aggression [es], and given that the government assures that agents act with “prudence and determination,” it does not seem that the situation will get better any time soon. | Tamin'ny volana Aogositra fotsiny dia efa enina sahady ny mpanao gazety nitoroka herisetra nataon'ny polisy [es], nefa lazaina fa ny governemanta dia miantoka ny fanatanterahan'ireo olony ny asany ‘amim-pahamalinana sy amim-pahamatorana”, toa tsy mbola ho ato ho ato no hihatsaran'ny toe-draharaha. |
