Please help stop another massacre, and human violations in Brazil, against the native tribe Guarani Kaiowa, from Laranjeira Nhanderu, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. About 170 members of the community, including 100 children and 30 elderly, are agonizing about an eviction order to leave in 15 days. Eviction FROM THEIR traditional land, without have been giving a place to go. 


These are the news written by Tonico Guarani Kaiowa:

"SINCE the BEGINNING of the YEAR 2012 WE'RE ALL IN DESPAIR HERE IN THE STATE OF Mato Grosso.
In fact, the current situation of our people of Guarani-kaiowá each day gets worse and is in final process of decimation, so all we are in total despair THERE is no HOPE to KEEP ALIVE our life and our culture without our land. Harmful actions against our lives and cultures come from two instances, i.e. when it is not the gunmen and farmers, the justice themselves generate injustices, SO UNFORTUNATELY the INJUSTICES are a REALITY in MS.

We just received news that PF is gearing up to dump by force the community of Orange Ñanderu-Rio Brillante-MS.

In this country of Brazil, it appears that there is no justice for the people of Guarani-Kaiowá.
I will be sending you the news."

TONICO GUARANI KAIOWÁ
------------------------------------------------
JUSTICE ORDERS THE SUSPENSION OF THE DEMARCATIONS OF NATIVE LANDS AND ORDERS THE EXPULSION OF THE GUARANI KAIOWÁ BECAUSE THEIR LANDS ARE NOT DEMARCATED. CAN THIS BE?

UOL has published the story below which provides additional information on the situation.
------------------------------------------------

"The Justice gave a period of 15 days for a group of Indians guarani-kaiowá from the laranjeira Nhanderu land, in Mato Grosso do Sul, to abandon the area, which is claimed by farmers. The rationale, according to information from the Cimi (CCME) in the region, was that the Nacional Fundation do Índio (Funai) did not provide the identification of land report. India Luciene Almeida, daughter of the local leader, said that federal politicians were in the village this Friday the 27th, to give the order of repossession and communicate that the Indians would have 15 days to leave the land. In the village live 170 Indians, being 100 children and 30 elderly.

"We have no where to go. We have been here four years and we already have had to stand on the roadside twice, "said Luciene, referring to two other evictions orders that the tribe had to fulfill.
