Johny Pacheco defender of CDI Piedra Azul, La Limonera, shot dead, total of 9 socialists killed - he was with Ponce and Rosiris, defending the CDI on Monday night when they were both shot dead. Another La Limonera neighbour was shot at during the funeral procession. La Limonera is a Socialist City of 1000 homes built by Bolivarian revolution in upper class Baruta, to house victims of floods. Upper middle class Baruta inhabitants (right wing voters) hate La Limonera, as they do not belong to same social class, racial group. Right wing thugs from Baruta have been harassing La Limonera neighbours for months, opposed the building of the complex. Baruta is ruled by the right wing (Capriles was the mayor in 2002 when he led the assault on the Cuban embassy) and is also part of Miranda state, ruled currently by Capriles. PoliBaruta and PoliMiranda have been accused of being part of the right wing violence against socialists in the last week.
