IncaKolaNews Update -- Monterrico Metals: Journalist who was tortured and released photo evidence has reported receiving death threats

It is very typical for strongmen, with gigantic macho Latino attitudes to like to control everything. It is even more common for wealthy big shots from North American or European companies to bribe and use their domestic connections with natives to ensure they get what they want.

Well, as you can read in more detail at this post from IncaKolaNews, the journalist who published the photos of Monterrico Metals torturing himself and others is now receiving death threats on his personal cell phone.

This is very common in Peru. I was young at the time but I vividly remember the fear in the eyes of my family members when my Peruvian uncle, Lucho Iberico helped break the Fujimori scandal (where video's where made public of Montesinos bribing Peru's elite). To all readers keep this story alive and knowledge of this story alive, so that this company and the people responsible for these horrible things get what they deserve (Andrew Bristow, Richard Ralph).

The twisted and evil actions of Monterrico Metals (MNA.L)

For quite some now IncaKolaNews has been following the developments behind the very obvious abuse of power and torture conducted by Monterrico Metals and it's security company, Forza (part of the Swiss Securitas Group) against poor communities in the Peruvian Andes.

Check out this article from Reuters published today.

"A Peruvian security company that works for some major international mining firms faces a congressional investigation after human rights groups accused it of beating and abusing protesters in 2005 at a site it guarded.

Recently published photos of alleged beatings of protesters caused an uproar in Peru, a leading metals exporter, where remote mines guarded by private security firms are often targets for demonstrations over the social and environmental impacts of mining."
