Municipal Group Socialist and United Left represented in the municipality of Lorca, denounce the obstacles People's Government Team is putting the "Association May 11 - We Lorca" to spread their calls for public gathering.
The complainants opposition groups have been aware of the obstacles, the City Council, are being to give the "Association May 11 - We Lorca," the appropriate license to get car loudspeakers on the street, with the aim concentration to announce that the Association plans to convene the next 11 days as is customary since last May in remembrance of those affected by the earthquakes that shook Lorca five months ago, and to vindicate the Administration compliance with the commitments they assume because of the sad events.
Sample of those obstacles are the fine he was subjected to the Association a few weeks ago when he made his call through a loudspeaker car, or even worse the fact that covered in the recent Municipal Coexistence (point 6 of Article . 17) are difficult to obtain the appropriate permission to publicize the convocation of the next October 11.
From the city of the opposition groups is not understood as the City Council tries, repeatedly, restricting the activities of an association whose sole purpose is to inform and prevent Lorca Lorca's situation falls into oblivion, something should unconditionally support the team instead of demanding government bureaucracy, so far non-existent to grant that license, as is the fact that the authorization to be taken for approval of the Municipal Government Board.
The facts, as well as undemocratic seem awkward from the political point of view, since the existence of a strong and assertive civic movement that claims it is fair for the return to normality in the city of Lorca, is an aspect key on which the government team can also draw with the other administrations.
Similarly we have been informed that the City Council this association has demanded as a condition for granting the license, a permit from the Office of the Government to carry out this concentration, which is not necessary in the case of concentrations because, as says the Spanish Constitution - the supreme law governing the coexistence in our country - in art.
21: "The right of peaceful assembly without arms. The exercise of this right shall not require prior authorization."
Adding in point 2 that "In the case of meetings in public places and events will be prior notification to the authority, who can only forbid if there are reasonable grounds of public nuisance, endangering people or property."
Likewise, Article 3 of the Organic Law 9 / 1983 states that "No meeting shall be subject to prior approval regime, and protect the government authority meetings and demonstrations against those who will try to prevent, disrupt or undermine the legitimate exercise of this right. Still, the Platform was informed of the Government Office on time and the next concentration having been approved by it.
From the city of the opposition groups, we learned that this morning the Mayor of Lorca himself, Francisco Jodar, has denied the possibility of advertising platform the next day 11 concentration in an attitude that we can not qualify more that undemocratic and an attempt to limit freedom of expression of those affected by the earthquake in Lorca, for the simple fact that there may be things that the government team would prefer not to hear.
Finally, the plaintiffs opposition groups describe as authoritarian and fearful attitude of the government team, considering that this course of action defies all logic it should be a ceremony filled with pride to a team of government that sees these acts, that society is alive and lorquina demands, so they say sorry for what is happening and ask for immediate correction to the "Association May 11 - We Lorca", exercising its convening role and dissemination of their actions freely.
