On the occasion of Gustavo Gatica’s birthday, a series of British artists used their social networks to send greetings to the psychology student. One of them was Peter Gabriel, who through Twitter expressed his outrage at the events that caused the young Gatica to be blind. “I was moved and saddened to learn that Gustavo lost his sight as a result of the violence against protesters in Santiago. It is outrageous and should never be allowed to happen. I hope that those responsible will face justice,” he said.
Along with the message, the singer-songwriter shared a video from Amnesty International, a body that condemned the human rights violations during the protests of the social outbreak in October and November last year.
Peter Gabriel’s greeting was joined by the Keane band, who uploaded a video on social networks with greetings for the young man, who suffered the total loss of his vision as a result of the impact of pellets during the social outbreak, for which he is in prison Preventive the former Arabian Claudio Crespo.
“Today is Gustavo’s 23rd birthday. Like us, Gustavo loves music. But a year ago, the police shot him and blinded him in Chile while protesting inequality,” says the group’s publication, which is accompanied by a video where the group’s drummer, Richard David Hughes, speaks.
“Let us demand justice for Gustavo. Join us and Amnesty UK to act,” added the musician.
The 1975 vocalist, Matty Healy, also uploaded a video but to Instagram where he emphasizes that the young Chilean “is a musician, plays bass in a school band and plays drums too. But recently he was in a protest, in against the growth of inequality and the police fired into the crowd with rubber and metal ammunition. “
Kaiser Chiefs did his thing and dedicated words to Gustavo Gatica, stating that “we listened to your story and we wanted to tell you that you are the hero. We send you all our solidarity and support in your fight to find justice, and please take care. We wanted to wish you a happy birthday”.
