translated from Spanish: Cops close peasants in San Lazarus to avoid marching to the Zocalo

Several organizations that make up the Frente Auténtico del Campo are preparing to march to the Zocalo, to break into the parade for the 109th anniversary of the Mexican Revolution organized by the federal government.
In the vicinity of the Legislative Palace of San Lázaro, the almost five thousand protesters began to prepare their departure to Fray Servando and from there march towards the capital Zocalo.

However, the capital police installed several holds and surveillance belts to prevent the protesters from leaving the city centre.
Marco Antonio Ortiz, leader of the Coalition of Urban and Peasant Democratic Organizations (Coduc), reported that despite an operation of more than two thousand capital police men who will seek to prevent their participation in the parade, they will enter the Zocalo and march to expose their budgetary demands.
“We’re going to march and we’re going to get to the Zocalo, even if we get police hold,” he said in an interview.
