Video of Spanish police
beating up women
in peaceful protest goes viral . . .
A video
of Spanish police violently beating up a group of women during a demonstration
has gone viral. The women were protesting a draft bill that restricts the right
to abort, only allowing the procedure in cases of rape and when there is a
health risk.
The video, released by the
Periodismo Humano news site, following the protest on Friday, has taken YouTube
by storm, racking up over 300,000 views over the weekend. The footage shows
members of the activist group ‘We decide’ talking to officers after the
protest. Shouting can be heard and then officers, seemingly unprovoked, knock
down a number of women and beat them with their truncheons.
Pegawai-pegawai
polis tumbuk individu ke tanah di hadapan ‘Cuffing’ mereka dan memaksa mereka
ke dalam kenderaan polis. Selepas diserang oleh salah seorang pegawai, salah
seorang wanita menjerit: "anak ab . . . , jangan meletakkan jari pada saya!”
Mendorong pegawai polis untuk memukulnya ke perutnya dan menolak beliau ke
tanah.
Walaupun
diterajui jauh, salah satu yang ditahan, yang tangannya telah disediakan di
belakang beliau menjerit dalam kesakitan yang pihak polis “pecah tangan saya”.
Sumber
di dalam polis Sepanyol kepada agensi berita EFE bahawa 3 tahanan berikut
tunjuk perasaan telah dibawa di atas tuduhan penentangan orang awam, menentang
penangkapan dan menyerang ahli penguatkuasaan undang-undang .
Video
ini mencetuskan tindak balas yang tajam di media sosial, di tengah-tengah
tuduhan “kekejaman polis, taktik ugutan dan penindasan” di Twitter.
Protes
itu sendiri adalah aman, menarik lebih 500 penyokong, yang kebanyakannya adalah
wanita, untuk menunjukkan terhadap draf rang undang-undang menetapkan
pemba-haruan kepada undang-undang pengguguran Bahasa Sepanyol semasa. Penunjuk
perasaan menggesa peletakan jawatan Menteri Kehakiman, Alberto Ruiz- Gallardon,

undang-undang tidak diluluskan oleh Parlimen, tetapi telah menerima sokongan
majoriti dari parti politik yang memerintah Sepanyol, Parti Rakyat.
The
police officers wrestle the individuals to the ground before cuffing them and
forcing them into a police vehicle. After being attacked by one of the
officers, one of the women shouts: “son of a b…, don’t lay another finger on
me!” prompting the police officer to hit her in the stomach and push her to the
ground.
While
being led away, one of the detained, who has her arms drawn up behind her back
screams out in pain that the police are “breaking my arms”.
Sources
within the Spanish police told news agency EFE that the three individuals
arrested following the protest were brought in on charges of civil
disobedience, resisting arrest and assaulting a member of law enforcement.

brutality, intimidation tactics and repression” on Twitter.

protest itself was peaceful, attracting over 500 supporters, most of whom were
women, to demonstrate against a draft bill stipulating a reform to the current
Spanish abortion law. The demonstrators called for the resignation of Minister

Undang-undang
baru akan menyekat hak wanita untuk membatalkan, hanya membe-narkan prosedur
dalam kes-kes rogol dan apabila terdapat ancaman yang serius kepada kesihatan.
Pada masa ini, undang-undang Sepanyol membolehkan wanita untuk memba-talkan
tanpa sebarang sekatan sehingga 14 minggu kehamilan.
Di
samping itu, di bawah umur akan dikehendaki mendapatkan persetujuan daripada
ibu bapa mereka untuk membatalkan, sesuatu yang telah dibatalkan di Sepanyol
pada tahun 2010.
Kerajaan
telah berkata ia percaya undang-undang semasa terlalu liberal dan rang
undang-undang baru ini akan memberi “pertahanan kedua-dua untuk melindungi
nyawa anak dalam kandungan dan hak-hak wanita”.
Kumpulan
hak asasi manusia mengecam bil sebagai tidak perlu. Di bawah undang-undang
semasa bilangan pengguguran di Sepanyol menurun sebanyak 5 % peratus pada tahun
2012, menurut statistik yang dikeluarkan oleh Kementerian Kesihatan.
Pakar
sakit puan dan jurucakap bagi kumpulan itu ‘Kami membuat keputusan,’ Isabel
Serrano memberitahu saluran kakak Sepanyol RT ini, Actualidad RT, rang itu
adalah “besar set – belakang” dan mengambil Sepanyol di luar konteks Eropah.
Serrano
seterusnya berkata bahawa rang undang-undang tidak akan mengurangkan kadar
pengguguran, sebaliknya, wanita mungkin untuk menjalankan prosedur yang “haram”
dan dalam “keadaan lebih buruk”.
The new
legislation would restrict women’s right to abort, only allowing the procedure
in cases of rape and when there is a serious threat to health. Currently,
Spanish law allows women to abort without any restrictions up to 14 weeks into
pregnancy
In
addition, minors would be required to get consent from their parents to abort,
something that was abolished in Spain in 2010.
The
government has said it believes the current law is too liberal and the new bill
would provide “defense both for the protection of the life of the unborn child
and women's rights”.
Rights
groups have slammed the bill as unnecessary. Under the current law the number
of abortions in Spain decreased by 5 percent in 2012, according to statistics
released by the Health Ministry.
Gynecologist
and spokesperson for the group ‘We decide,’ Isabel Serrano told RT’s Spanish
sister channel, Actualidad RT, that the draft bill was an “enormous set-back”
and takes Spain out of the European context.
Serrano
went on to say that the bill will not reduce abortion rates; instead, women are
likely to carry out the procedure “illegally” and in “much worse conditions”.
