charges against Salvadoran protestors be dropped. On July 2, 2007 fourteen

<st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:PersonName w:st="on">E</st1:PersonName>l
Salvador</st1:country-region></st1:place> for taking part in a protest
against water privatization. Police brutality against the peaceful
demonstration and the arrests of 14 of them produced international outrage,
and ultimately this pressure forced the Salvadoran government to
temporarily release the detainees. Nevertheless, protestors continue to be
charged under the “anti-terrorism” law and could face up to 60
years in prison. This draconian law that criminalizes different forms of
public protest as acts of terrorism is being used to silence the social
movement in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">El Salvador</st1:country-region></st1:place>,

the case against the Suchitoto protesters. The trial was scheduled for the
first week of October 2007 but was delayed for three months while the
prosecutors build their “terrorism” case. However, it is
obvious that the trial was delayed for lack of evidence, since those
arrested were in the streets to voice their opinion against water
privatization and for the international community to forget about the case.

both against the social movement in general and against the 14
demonstrators in particular, represents a step back from the 1992 Peace
Accords. A group of Salvadoran judges declared on September 2007 that the
law is “too confusing” and, more importantly, declared that “simple
street protests are not acts of terrorism”. Despite the
repression against the Salvadoran social movement, people continue to
organize against privatization and economic and political repression.
