GENERAL STRIKE IN SANTURTZI IN PROTEST FOR IGOR'S KILLING

Almost all shops and bars are closed in Santurtzi today after a general strike was called in protest for their local Basque political prisoner Igor Angulo. More protests are to be hold during the day in all Basque Country. They are supported by majority of trade unions, social organizations and left wing pro-independence movement.

In a busy press conference and helped by more than fifty political prisoners relatives Igor Angulo's girlfriend made clear that "he is been murdered and nobody can have any kind of doubt". She said that even the jails' director was shocked and highlighted how despite political differences he had a good opinion about Igor and added that he was an important prisoner as he helped everybody (he got the nickname "Little Lawyer").

The forensics pointed that there are still strong reasons and contradictions to keep doubts on the circumstances of Igor's death.
