The Quechua are descendants of the Incas and pretty much have their own deal going on. They appear not yet to have embraced the European concepts of justice.
But hey, if it works for them, who are we to judge? Just a cultural difference and celebrating diversity and practicing tolerance are worthy goals. --R (sent from my miniPad) On Jun 7, 2013, at 6:19 PM, OK Don <okd...@gmail.com> wrote: *Community action can be as powerful a deterant as open carry -- not that I'm avocating mob rule or vigilanties ---* A man suspected of rape has been buried alive by villagers in the southern highlands of Bolivia. Police had identified the 17-year-old as the possible culprit in the rape and murder of a 35-year-old woman near the municipality of Colquechaca. The chief prosecutor says more than 200 furious local people seized Santos Ramos and buried him in the grave of his alleged victim. He says residents blocked roads into the village to stop police arriving. A reporter for a local radio station, who would only speak anonymously for fear of reprisals, told the media that Mr Ramos was tied up at the woman's funeral. He said mourners threw him into the open grave alongside the woman's coffin and filled the grave with earth. Colquechaca is a town of about 5,000 inhabitants some 207 miles ( 333 km) south-east of the Bolivian capital, La Paz. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-22811105 -- OK Don 2013 F150 2012 Passat TDI DSG 1957 C182A _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
