CASE OF DE HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLITON OF EUROPEAN CITIZENS IN BOLIVIA
2009, April 28
To: Dr. Hans-Gert Pцttering
President of the European Parliament
Brussels
Dear Mr. President,
We would like to request for your help in the following case:
In the early morning of April 16 armed Bolivian military authorities attacked
a group of European citizens in a hotel in Santa Cruz were the five men were staying. Four European nationalities were involved, including Irish, Hungarian, Romanian and Croatian.
Three of the five men were executed on the spot; two of them were arrested. One of them is the Hungarian citizen Elцd Tубsу (28) who is a Transylvanian Hungarian.
It is a fact that Mr. Tубsу was being tortured after his arrest and it is a fact that he is being imprisoned under inhuman conditions in La Paz state prison. This is against the spirit and practice of European law.
The Bolivian authorities are charging the five men of committing the crime of conspiracy against the Bolivian state. This is a very severe charge which could not be proved yet by the Bolivian authorities. We are worried about the fact that the Bolivian authorities will not grant Mr. Tубsу a fair trial, neither that they will respect his human rights.
Dear Mr. president, you are the president of the European Parliament. Hence you are legally and morally representing 450 million European citizens. The European Union is a tremendous economic power in the world and it enjoys moral respect. In a number of countries the EU is respected because it is supporting the international legal order and is committed to the case of human rights. In this spirit and in the knowledge of these values only We would like to make you the following request:
1. The European Parliament should initiate an independent fact-finding mission to investigate the conditions of the executions in Bolivia in this case.
2. The European Parliament should do everything to guarantee Elцd Tубsу a fair trial and the respect for his human rights while being in custody in Bolivia
