La Paz, October 22 (RHC)-- Victims of the right-wing coup against Bolivian President Evo Morales in 2019 are marching toward the country's capital.  One of the representatives of the victims of Senkata during the coup, Marisol Rodríguez, informed local media that the relatives and victims of the massacres of Senkata, Pedregal and Sacaba managed to reach the municipality of Patacamaya, where they will rest and then continue their mobilization to La Paz in search of justice.

"We have muscle fatigue, but we are still firm.  We are not going to give up.  We are going to reach the city of El Alto and the city of La Paz.  This march is for justice.  It is for the victims, the injured, relatives of those killed.  We are fighting for justice and we are going to go to the last consequences," expressed Marisol Rodriguez.

Relatives and victims of the massacres in Bolivia in 2019 demand justice for 37 killed, more than 500 wounded and 1,800 detained and tortured during the de facto government of Jeanine Añez.

The demonstrators are marching along the Oruro-La Paz highway.  They plan to travel 190 kilometers (km), and ask to speed up the criminal proceedings against the military and ministers who at the time were in that Executive.

Friday is the fourth day of the march of the demonstrators since they left Caracollo (Oruro) on their way to La Paz, the Bolivian capital.
