EVER, A VICTIM FROM CIWY

     

Ever Merida G. - Inti Wara YassiEver Mérida Gonzáles, an orphan child, grew in a home of abandoned children, he knew Juan Carlos Antezana when he was five years old, when Juan Carlos was educating in that center, Ever came out before the 17 years old, go to work as volunteer to the Machia Park, the whole family that Ever had was Juan Carlos and "Nena." In Villa Tunari the people knew him as "Nena's" son.

He works next to them during five years, as part of the Inti wara yassi family, he knows all that was made inside the two parks, the relationship with him was of so much trust that he usually made deposits and other economic movements for "Nena" and Juan Carlos. Ever developed a special connection with the felines (pumas, jaguars, ounces, ocelots and others) this took it to take charge of Katie jaguar (on 2006 when she arrived at the Machia Park), the jaguar was housed temporarily in a very humid room and Ever worked day and night to build her a better habitat  near the “mirador”.

Ever was the only person who Katie used to play, she was very unfriendly and she didn't tolerate the presence of anybody. The day that they decided to transfer her to Ambue Ari Park, Ever travelled to Santa Cruz to get an oral tranquilizer to make less stress, in spite of his reiterated requests to Juan Carlos, to be taken charge of changing to this jaguar to the cage that would transfer her definitively to Ambue Ari, his orders were not listened, Katie was murdered by Luis Morales ' negligence (veterinarian of CIWY), after her death, Juan Carlos and Nena were present, they did not even bothered in getting the attention to this veterinarian, they were concerned in mounting a photographic show to pretend that Katie had a collapse, that they tried to save her and that finally she died. Katie's cadaver was frozen during three days for finally to be buried.

 

Juan Carlos and "Nena" decided to buy another jaguar, not for fear to the National Authority (DGB), but for fearing of one of their political "godfathers" from the political movement MAS, this legislator got that DGB gave the confiscated jaguar to CIWY, in spite of the fact that the authorities that were then in that had serious observations to the CIWY´s work.

After Katie's death, the relationship between Ever and them has radically changed, "Nena" realized that to have Ever so close and inside CIWY was a great danger. Of one day to other and without previous warning she asked him to leave and she embarked him in a fleet toward Cochabamba, some months later she called him to Cochabamba to tell him that she needed to speak with him in an urgent way, Ever didn't think it twice, they were his family and he thought that finally the things would get ready. He arrived at the Machía Park at two of the daylight; minutes before he made a call to "Nena" to tell her that he already arrived, she answered him that she would wait for it in the office.

The office was open, but the out lights were off, when he entered to the same one and to fasten the lights on, the show mounted by "Nena" began, which she accused him of thief, without giving him time to react, among several people attacked him to blows, opening him wounded of consideration in his face, these wounds sprinkled of blood the whole area where he was, we have the pictures taken by a foreign volunteer the day of this incident.

Before being transferred from an irregular way to Cochabamba, they made him sign a leaf in white without a lawyer's presence. "Nena" had a last conversation where she told him that she didn't want never see him again, that if he accepted to have made the crime and to be declared guilty, she would suspend the accusation, Ever was afraid and obviously he didn't distrust of somebody that was as her mother and he accepted to sign being declared guilty.

Ever is at the moment in San Sebastian's jail, on February 29th finished his preventive detention of six months; however he won't be able to leave because he knows too much and Nena and Juan Carlos are trying to keep Ever in the jail.
