PLAN Visited Kappes, Cassiday & Associates to Protest Violent Evictions in Guatemala

On Wednesday May 25, six representatives of the Progressive Alliance of Nevada called on Daniel Kappes to stop the tear-gassing of residents peacefully protesting the contamination of their water by the KCA-owned El Tambor gold mine. Guatemalan Army and police injured 20 men, women and children as they cleared the road for the KCA mining machinery to enter the mine after two and a half years of preventing it.

Daniel Kappes is also a Director of Comstock Mining Inc., currently degrading and destroying the Virginia City National Historic Landmark.
