One individual had demanded the eviction on the basis that he had inherited the land. The evictees were not provided with a relocation site, and most of them had to move into the already overcrowded houses of relatives. - Indígenas realizaron un piquete en contra de su desalojo’, Primera Fuente, http://www.primerafuente.com.ar/nota.asp?id_seccion=2&id_nota=29484
