“MY BROTHER CALLED ME 10 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHIPWRECK AND THE ITALIAN GOVERNMENT LET THEM DIE”
The voice and pain of Shahid, a year after the death of his brother in the massacre of Cruto
During the hearing for the Steccato di Cutro massacre, currently undergoing in the court of Crotone, new videos have been shown. These videos have been filmed by one of the fishermen trying to rescue the castaways painfully arriving at the shore. An appalling nightmare in the night of the 26 of February in Steccato di Cutro.
After one year, we feel the duty to remember what happened, and to stand by all these people. We want to remember the list of the 94 people drowned at sea, but also to spread as much as possible the families’ cry of condemnation.
Not only this. We want also to remember all the people clashing against the border of Europe. Those people who are still fighting to obtain justice and legal ways to enter the continent in order to live the life they wished, far away from wars and socio-economical crises.
In these days separating us from February 26th, we have received new video testimonies about that tragic night of Steccato di Cutro. The first video is Shahid’s denunciation, who undoubtedly claims that the Italian government has not rescued the boat “Summer Love”.
