In "A License to Steal" Part
1, I personally photographed
theft of Ferrovias Guatemala's infrastructure by scrap metal
thieves...or parties interested in seeing irreplaceable bridges collapse
in the next earthquake. In contrast, these photos document theft that is
both blatant and institutionalized--namely, by the public sector.
The below photos, taken by our management team, document the systematic
expropriation of our most valuable asset, our right-of-way, in three
different locations. Once again, the photos speak for themselves as
highly visible evidence of the effects of the Declaration of Lesivo
against Ferrovias Guatemala.
We are of course consistently reporting each of these incidents to the
government, consistent with our responsibility for protecting these
irreplaceable and valuable national assets to the best of our ability in
the current environment.
