In Brazil's farm belt of land ownership conflicts more and more, into a bloody last Thursday, India during the violent eviction of about 200 locals from a disputed property owned by the former congressman was shot dead.
Terena Indians refused a court order to leave two weeks ago, they invaded the cattle ranch. In 2010 the federal agency designated pastures, ancestral homeland, but the local court last year ruled that it belongs to the farmer.
Indians threw stones at riot police fired tear gas to expel the occupiers from the 17,000-hectare property, the southern state of Mato Grosso do Sul, the production for export of soybeans and corn.
Brazil's indigenous policy locals using anthropological research to return land, is considered one of the world's most advanced. But it led to violence, as the country to become an agricultural superpower, India's conflict of interest policy and farming.
In the nearby town of Campo Grande a federal police spokesman said the Indians during the conflict, and the police do not know who is responsible for the fatal shooting shooting, because no bullets found in the body.
Authorities launched an investigation to determine who shot India. Fourth, other indigenous people were injured, and four police officers who bullets in their bulletproof vests made??, the spokesman said.
Reuters reported earlier this month, President Rousseff has ordered her to stop turning Indian government on farmland in the powerful farm lobby groups say the correct historical injustices is a huge misleading.
Has set aside 13% of Brazil's territory and the transfer of more Indians are considered. Conflict, like a cattle ranch, is a common increasingly tense.
The Government Office of Indian Affairs Funai said, Federal Ministry of Justice approved the controversial delimitation ranch in Mato Grosso do Sul, in 2010 Treanor as a reserve. But farmers say they have been in the region for decades to live.
Farmers commended the Government announced on May 8, other federal agencies will be involved in the decision of the land, effectively reducing the Funai jurisdiction. Farm lobby politicians in Congress ultimately want the last word.
