And finally, in an update on a story we’ve covered on Democracy Now, Amnesty International is accusing a Mexican police force of covering up the rape and abuse of demonstrators at a land rights protest earlier this year. The alleged abuse took place after more than two hundred people were arrested in a massive crackdown on the town of San Salvador Atenco outside Mexico City in May. At least twenty three female prisoners have lodged complaints of rape and sexual abuse. Amnesty International says police destroyed witness statements while prison doctors refused to look into the prisoners’ allegations.
