police last month in the province of Jujuy in Argentina resulted in four deaths. It has been reported, but the coverage was quickly exhausted and the general reaction was a shrug -. "Yes, what happens" Indeed it does, all the time.

But it was not the deciding factor in this case. What made headlines, is that people actually resigned over it. Responsibility does not happen very often.

The episode draws attention to the black cloud, 28 years after the end of military dictatorship, still hangs on human rights practices in Argentina and security. Nationally, "it is almost a case of police violence every day," said Gerardo Netche, Argentine lawyer and researcher of the fight against police corruption CORREPI organization. Most cases are "easy shot killings (named after a judge in 1980, he thought he was more sensitive to the families of victims of" trigger happy ") or torture." In those days, "said Netche, "generally to all prisoners beaten, with varying strength depending on your case. Unfortunately, it is rare that one of these cases, to achieve a sort of conviction."

Widow and current president Kirchner, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner - Argentina tradition which is popularly known only by his first name - also ran on a platform of human rights. Almost guaranteed a second term after his landslide victory in the primary this month, has, however, still rely on the constitutional reforms of her late husband. The new security cabinet which was created to "reform the Federal Security" is long and there is some skepticism that it will be in place to address the widespread problems of corruption and attitudes.
