The Coordinator of Indigenous Organizations in the Amazon Basin - COICA, through a statement, has reiterated their defense of human rights in seeking the implementation of collective rights, respect for the dignity of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon peruanay, and their very strong opposition to the policies of the Peruvian government not to recognize the rights of indigenous peoples.   They also called for punishment of PlusPetrol for violating the Peruvian Amazon territory to attack its ecosystem by pouring more than 300 barrels of oil a Marañón river up to Saramuro, Urarina District, province of Loreto - Nauta, while transporting oil from the Lot 1AB on the boat Sanam III.   Consider that in addition to being part of the natural wealth of our Amazon, the Rio Maranon is the main source of water and food of various indigenous communities Cocamas, Kichwa and Urarinas and rural communities and demand a thorough investigation to determine the exact amount of oil spilled and so drop all the weight of the law-makers, managers of the company Plus Petrol and the carrier, and we demand the cleansing of the Rio Maranon.   Finally, denounced and condemned the violent intimidation of our leaders to defend territories and rights of indigenous peoples, such as neoliberal Peruvian government responsible for not respecting the rights of the AIDESEP authorities and other indigenous local, national and regional authorities.
