Lima, March 2 (RHC)-- Peru's Unified National Committee of Struggle (CONULP) called on Indigenous peoples to mobilize for the “Second Takeover of Lima” on Wednesday, March 1st.  

Progressive social and political organizations continue to fight for the resignation of designated-President Dina Boluarte, who was appointed by Congress after the removal of President Pedro Castillo on December 7th last year.

Since yesterday, Indigenous people are taking buses and cars to travel to the capital of Peru from departments such as Huanuco, Ancash, Lambayeque, Tacna, La Libertad, Moquegua, Apurimac, El Vraem, Arequipa, Loreto, Cajamarca, and Junin.

From the department of Puno, the participation of social organizations from the districts of Pomapata, Yunguta, Sepita, El Collao, Chucuito, and Yunguyo has also been confirmed.

Eloy Pacha, the president of the La Rinconada's neighborhoods, stressed the importance of the formation of CONULP to reorganize the popular struggle so as to demand justice for all the victims of State terrorism in Peru.

Meanwhile, the lawfare against the leftist leaders continues. On Monday, a court rejected a petition for habeas corpus in favor of Castillo presented by the National Federation of Lawyers of Peru, which sought that the preventive detention against him be annulled.
