HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL
22nd session
25 February – 22 March 2013

[Excerpt from the statement]

There are many mamos (traditional authorities) and other members of our communities who have been disappeared, killed or displaced for maintaining a position of neutrality towards all the legal and illegal armed groups that dispute our sacred territory. Blood has stained our sacred land affecting our survival as indigenous peoples.
