In a publication on social networks, the NGO Themis assures that “it is fundamental and urgent that the circumstances of Jane’s death be rigorously investigated by the competent authorities; that the family and the community receive adequate support and respect from the State and that the Public Power adopt concrete actions so that the rights and life of blacks and the periphery are no longer systematically violated ”.
