México.- After four years of the explosion of the Pasta de Conchos mine, in Coahuila , this government " has not made justice to the relatives of the dead workers" and persist the evidence of the fact that, deliberately, Grupo Mexico did not want to recapture the bodies and that, even, "when unilaterally discontinued the tasks of rescue, still there were surviving in the mine", denounced the bishop of Saltillo, Raul Vera. This mine is "the patent paradigm of the slight that has the government of Felipe Calderon by the life of the workers".

Upon making an inventory the Vera bishop, made an inventory of the damages suffered by the relatives and wife of the miners in a thousand 460 days that carry in struggle. Maria Trinidad Cantu, mother of Raul Villasana, one of the miners expired in the explosion, she said that already it was admitted its accusation against the Mexican government before the Inter-American Commission of Human Laws (CIDH) by the negligence and illegality with which has acted in this case. With the deeply felt voice supported: "we must appeal to international instances because four years this government has been mute, deaf and blind before our demands, that are condensed in an alone: that rescue to our dead".

If this president attended the facts of injustice, we would not be necessary to attend to world organizations, itemized her. In this act also attended Oralia Martinez, wife of Juan Ramon Flores, mining dead recently in the Pocito Ferber, that had been closed and operated illegally. With a child in arms stated her: "in this government the entrepreneurs make what they just do it, because they permit all; in my case the chief did not pay the funeral expenses. He was not taken charge of ours, what a shame.

To Calderon not annoys to him that families may have suffered four years by the bodies of the died in Pasta de Conchos, just as not imports to him to order to the street to 44 thousand electricians to deliver to the entrepreneurs the business of the optical fiber (…)" all over sides we see in the country trampled the dignity of the Mexicans", forceful said him. This government quiets us with the argument of the fact that it is bottled in a war against the drug traffic, when it is evident that only will have died and nothing of positive results of that battle while not punish the high political that protect to the criminals, as well as to the bankers and financial houses that them wash money, annotated.

Luis Arriaga, directing of the Human Laws Center Miguel Agustin Pro Juarez, commented that it is hoped that the CIDH issue a statement in the sense of the fact that the Mexican government violated the human rights of the miners and their families, and order a serious and impartial investigation on the events. Pasta de Conchos is not an isolated fact but a clear evidence of the lack of access of the workers to the justice, with the complicity between the government and the entrepreneurs.

In so much Carlos Rodriguez of the Center of Reflection and Occupational Action, exposed that of 1989 to date they have died a thousand 647 working in the mines and it has not been sanctioned to any entrepreneur; they have permeated the impunity and the "forgetfulness" of the authorities. In the case of Grupo Mexico has not been any embarrassment in spreading their millionaires earnings, "enrichment based on the workers death" and in the “right to strike” grave, as now intends that occur in Cananea, Sonora.

Cananea, Sonora
A group of progressive court of attorneys, between them the attorneys occupational Nestor and Carlos de Buen, and other litigators grouped in the National association of Democratic Attorneys (ANAD) and in the jurists Union of Mexico were expressed (Feb 18, 10)as compared to the SCJN with motive of the recent failure in against of the habeas corpus to the miners of Cananea, since it is considered a resolution that "demonstrates that the Mexican justice system is kidnapped by the governmental and entrepreneurial interest.
The last week, unanimously (three votes), the integrating of the second court associated in work matter in the Federal District denied the protection to the National Union of Metallurgical Mining Workers of the Mexican Republic and Similar (SNTMMSRM) resolution that confirms the term of the occupational relationships between Mexican of Cananea of Grupo Mexico, and the union organization of the executive Napoleon Gomez Urrutia.

With that judicial sentence remains firm an judicial document of the Federal Board of Conciliation and Arbitration that the past 14 of April supported the proposal of Grupo Mexico of liquidating to one thousand 100 unionized and 100 personnel without union that were working in the mine of Cananea, the one which carries 31 months in strike.
According to can deal, the federal government is obstinate in carrying to a new level the archaic neoliberal premise: so that a country will be attractive for the foreign capitals is necessary to adopt measures in prejudice, extermination of the working class and the union organizations. Result obligator we wounded if this were referred the president when makes some days, in its context of his visit to Davos, Suiza, he guaranteed to executive of transnational companies that his government will follow impelling the "competitiveness" and the " legal certainty" in the country, to effect of attracting investments.
