Description
An unknown journalist sits on the ground holding a notepad. Beside him is a blue bag with a camera on top of it. He is sitting next to camera equipment with the British flag. The message on the ground reads: "They are the same assassins. The E.G.P. (Guerrilla Army of the Poor) Voted but with sticks." Before the elections, the guerrilla made a call not to vote.
Un periodista desconocido sostiene una libreta y se sienta junto al equipo de cámara con la bandera británica. El mensaje en el suelo lee "Son los mismos asecinos (sic). El E.G.P. (Ejército Guerrillero de los Pobres) Votó pero a palos". Antes de las elecciones, la guerrilla hizo un llamado para no votar.
