After several violent acts in the past few days for which organized crime has been responsible, the residents established a supervision commission in Olinal\u00e1, saying that they saw themselves as obligated to take justice into their own hands, given the extortion, disappearances, and murders committed by organized crime in this municipality of the Mountain Region of Guerrero, without any appropriate response from authorities.  On 27 October, bothered by lack of security, hundreds of residents of the same municipality took city hall for the entirety of the day and detained a presumed kidnapper from a gang that in recent days had assaulted the region with kidnappings and murders.<\/p>\n<p>On 6 November, members of the Regional Coordination of Communal Authorities (CRAC-Communal Polices) from San Luis Acatl\u00e1n affirmed that, while the presence of Navy and Army units in Olinal\u00e1 could be positive, \u201cwhen the federal forces go, the problems will continue.\u201d  They emphasized that the state and federal governments have failed to observe their obligation to provide security to the municipalities of the Mountain.  That same day, the state Congress called on Governor \u00c1ngel Aguirre Rivero to open dialogue with the residents of Olinal\u00e1 toward providing assurances of security for the population.   <a href=\"http:\/\/sipazen.wordpress.com\/2012\/11\/09\/guerrero-social-insurrection-in-olinala-against-organized-crime\/\" target=\"_blank\">&#8230;more<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"igit_tsb_button\" style=\"float: left; margin-right: 10px;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/share?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.crookedbough.com%2F%3Fp%3D14047&amp;text=Guerrero%3A+Social+insurrection+in+Olinal%C3%A1+against+organized+crime&amp;count=horizontal&amp;via=\" style=\"\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guerrero: Social insurrection in Olinal\u00e1 against organized crime SIPAZ blog \u2013 International Service for Peace \u2013 14 November, 2012 Residents of Olinal\u00e1 observe one of the entrances to the municipal center.
