Farm of Mirrors is a book that was published in 1987 in Bolivia, and since its first edition and publication, it has become a benchmark in the fight for Human Rights, for those imprisoned and detained, either illegally or unjustly. Achieving transformations in the prison, legal, police and political system in this Latin American country. Because with the publication of the 1st edition of this book, the author's social struggle also continued. For whose laudable deeds in favor of those prisoners and detainees who had no voice, Alejandro Colanzi Zeballos is not far from being considered for a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize. For this reason, thirty-five years after this event that we can call historic and transforming, a second edition of this book is presented. Presenting the references and recommendations of some experts on Legal and Human Rights issues:
Apart from conceptual considerations about the -antisocial and delinquency, delinquency and class struggle-, the book makes a detailed analysis of the Habeas Corpus process presented in favor of the inmates of the Farm, in which the non-observance of the legal system is demonstrated. and procedural failures by the Supreme Court of Justice itself.
Dr. Ricardo Serrano H. Editor of the content on the back cover of the 1st. Edition Never before has a story related to police activity filled the front pages of the local and national media like the action (...for what.... NEVER AGAIN!). The atrocities discovered justified it to such an extent that it became international news: for the first time in my professional life I saw so many international media and journalists in Santa Cruz de la Sierra.
Mr. Juan Miguel Zambrana. Executive Secretary of the Federation of the Press in Santa Cruz-Bolivia. The action (so that... NEVER AGAIN!) took the lawyers and the entire community out of a lethargy and complicit silence in the face of the barbarism and atrocity that was presented to us before our eyes. As expressed by a notable jurist Dr. Jesús Durán Ribera, -there is a before and after- of the action of the Farm of Mirrors and it was thanks to colleague Alejandro Colanzi. We are honored to have contributed to that human, historical and legal claim.
Dr. Blas Aramayo G. Pdte. DD Commission. HH of the Santa Cruz-Bolivia Bar Association. Some disturbing facts revealed later, thanks to the publication of this book Mirror Farm, according to a report by Dr. Clay Snow and the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team, sent by Amnesty International, were the following:
SC1 Evidence indicates a gunshot wound as the cause of death
SC2 The remains studied correspond to a young man of an age of 15 years
SC3 Only the bones of the feet were found, which suggests the removal of the body
SC4 The remains show peri-mortem injuries in both scapulae, in both ribs, a complete fracture of the left ulna, a typical defense injury
SC5 The cause of death was a wound produced by a firearm projectile to the skull...
In the PLATANAL cemetery (located near this aforementioned prison in Bolivia, in 1987), 5 possible graves were chosen at random, which were unearthed and numbered with the prefix SC. The study and expert report that was prepared in the Japanese Hospital, is the one that was presented to the judicial authority that required it.
