  1. SANTIAGO – Removed from the induced coma today, Daniel Zamudio should wake up in three or four days, according to the expectations of the medical team of the Posta Central hospital. The 24-year-old man was brutally attacked last Saturday in the capital Santiago, allegedly by a neo-nazi group. Swastika marks were left on his body, and the crime is considered to be driven by homophobia. Despite all his injuries – severe head trauma and a broken leg – Daniel will have no sequelae according to the doctors. Sequelae are pathological conditions resulting from disease or traumatic injury.

    The family is relieved and very happy, according to the general secretary of the organization Movimiento de Integración y Liberacíon Homosexual (Movilh), Alberto Roja. “It is a great happiness that Daniel has the strength to recover quickly. Only when he wakes up will he realize the severity of the attack he suffered, but he will also see that thanks to his case, the whole country has mobilized to quickly approve the law that ensures punishment for the discrimination of sexual minorities,” said Roja to I Love Chile.

    Since 2005, an anti-discrimination law has been analyzed in Chile. It was already approved by the Chamber of Deputies as well as the Senate last November. However, the law has still to complete a third step and be approved by a mixed commission. This week, the Senate signed an agreement asking the government to guarantee that the process will be faster from now on. The text asks the government to “urgently process the project of law that sets out measures against discrimination and the incitement of hate”.

    In the last decade, 17 homosexuals were murdered in Chile. In total, 837 episodes of homophobic discrimination were registered in the country, 66 of them with physical aggression, according to information from Movilh. In the most of the cases, no culprits were found.

    The case of Daniel Zamudio has no suspects at the moment. The police do not know who or how many people attacked the young man. This afternoon, Daniel’s parents had a meeting with police authorities, to go over details about the investigation. Today the regional governor of Santiago, Cecilia Perez, announced that she will seek to prosecute Daniel’s attackers for the crime of “frustrated qualified murder”. Moreover, Movilh is going to send a letter to the Justice, requesting that the investigation be as fast as possible. The organization also sent a letter to the President and to the Interior and Security Ministry of Chile, asking for a meeting.

    The aggression against Daniel Zamudio has also reached an international audience. Newspapers such as The Washington Post and the Huffington Post published reactions to the case, and the singer Ricky Martin demonstrated his support to Daniel and his family on the social media site Twitter.

    “No more hatred, no more discrimination. I hope that justice is done NOW. Lots of light to Daniel and his whole family,” he posted.
