 (415) 503-0789\n\nSTUDENT PROTEST IN EL SALVADOR MET WITH EXTREME POLICE 
 VIOLENCE\nLocal community activists rally against the Salvadoran 
 government¹s\nrepression of protestors, calling for a respect for the 
 Peace Accords and\nhuman rights \n\n\n           Members of the Committee 
 in Solidarity with the people of El\nSalvador, Salvadorans community 
 members, and other organizations and\nindividuals will protest outside the 
 Salvadoran Consulate tomorrow. They\nwill denounce the extreme police 
 violence used against high school and\nuniversity students who were 
 protesting bus fair hikes that have worsened\nthe economic crisis for 
 Salvadoran workers and families.  Wednesday morning\nSalvadoran police used 
 lethal force to shoot into a group of protestors from\nthe ground and from 
 helicopters, and the police have militarized the area\nsurrounding the 
 University, including a nearby hospital.\n\n            El Salvador¹s 
 Human Rights Ombudswoman has called yesterday¹s\nviolence the worst 
 violation of human rights since the signing of the 1992\nPeace Accords, 
 which put an and to the 12 year civil war. Today¹s police\noccupation into 
 the national university is strikingly familiar to the 1980¹s\nwhen the 
 state military-police forces invaded the National University 
 campus\nvarious times. These events confirm Salvadorans¹ worries about 
 the\ninstallation of the International Law Enforcement Academy in El 
 Salvador, a\npolice training school funded by the U.S. 
 government.\n\n\nWHAT: A rally in front of the Salvadoran Consulate office 
 in San Francisco.\nWe want to let the Salvadoran government know that we 
 are aware of the\nsituation in El Salvador and also that we are worried 
 because of the\nviolence used against the social movement. We ask the 
 Salvadoran government\nto stop violations to human rights, to respect the 
 autonomy of the National\nUniversity, and to free the detained young 
 people.\n\n\nWHEN:  11:30-1pm, Friday, July 7, 2006.\n\n\nWHERE:  
 Salvadoran Consulate, Flood Building On Market @ Powell St.\n\n\nVISUALS:
