The murder of five labor lawyers CCOO and PCE at number 55 Atocha street, the January 24, 1977, was a direct attack on the Spanish right wing, reluctant to socio-political changes of the time, they were driving Spain in the path of democratization, against those who had had decades fighting for democratic change in our country.
Those who committed the crimes they thought they were protected by the mantle of the dying outside of the system for 40 years Franco had imposed a regime that considered those killed in Atocha, simple criminals, P0R this reason did not flee after committing the crimes, but by then the laying of the foundations of democracy was not viable to allow these crimes will go unpunished and were arrested within days.
It has been 35 years after the murders, and even today there are dark clear whether all those involved in the killings were tried and convicted, because the preliminary investigation did not go beyond those who committed them, without seeking the talking heads who organized the murders.
They were arrested for these crimes Francisco Albaladejo (Secretary of the Union of Private Transportation Vertical Madrid and linked to FE de las JONS), sentenced by the court to 73 years in prison, died in prison in 1985, José Carlos García Fernández Hill and Julia each one sentenced to 193 years, Leocadio Jimenez Caravaca sentenced to 4 years and Gloria Herguedas Herrando sentenced to 1 year.
Fernando Lerdo de Tejada, who was also arrested for this crime escaped after being granted a permit prison in April 1979 to today, and although the crime prescribed in 1997, is still missing.
The perspective that gives the 35 years that have passed, the vile and cowardly murder by the Spanish right wing, and sat for the first time Franco in the dock, fails to show that Spanish society has gone but not page that dark chapter in our history has been able to advance along the path of democratization, and corner cowards who use violence and imposed a criminal regime, to impose their ideas, some of them are now serving time in prison and others have been held accountable to their god, while the society they sought to break with their murders and makes progress slowly but surely in the right direction.
Such a society that forgets its heroes, ordinary men who fought to build free free society, we enjoy today.
In memory of murdered labor lawyers: Enrique Valdevira Ibáñez, Luis Javier Benavides Orgaz yFrancisco Javier Pérez del Arco Sauquillo, the Seraph Antonio Holgado, and all those who died in the name of freedom in this country called Spain.
