Behind 'The Blood Diamond': Learn More and Get Involved

Botswana: Boscimani vincono la causa, appello a Di Caprio

12/14/2006 Manifestazioni di giubilo davanti alla sede dell'Alta Corte del Botswana che oggi ha emesso un verdetto storico a favore dei Boscimani del Kalahari. I giudici hanno stabilito che lo sfratto dei Boscimani � stato "illegale e anticostituzionale" e che hanno il diritto di ritornare a vivere nella loro terra - riporta Survival che da tempo sostiene la loro causa. La corte ha anche decretato che i Boscimani che hanno intentato causa hanno il diritto di cacciare e raccogliere liberamente nella riserva, senza dover chiedere il permesso di entrarvi. "� il giorno pi� bello della nostra vita" - ha dichiarato il portavoce dei Boscimani Roy Sesana davanti al tribunale". Intanto sempre i Boscimani del Kalahari hanno rinnovato il loro appello disperato a Leonardo Di Caprio, protagonista del film "The Blood Diamond", per chiedere di sostenere la loro causa e fermare le compagnie diamantifere che hanno iniziato le esplorazioni sul loro territorio. Il sostegno del gioiellere italiano milanese Francesco Belloni.
