Who was found guilty of killing his ex-girlfriend with an ashtray ?
María Sobrino (2º Bach A) answered:
Almost three years after the dissapearance of Marta del Castillo, her ex-boyfriend and 21-year old murderer Miguel Carcaño, was convicted with a sentence of twenty years in prison for killing the young girl with an ashtray.
The acquital of three other boys who were supossed to have helped Carcaño to hide the victim's body makes Marta's parents want more justice for his daughter's case.
After some unsuccessful searches, the police continues looking for Marta's body
.................................... On 24 April 2013,1133 people died in the Rana Plaza catastrophe in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A further 2500 were injured. They were killed while working for familiar fashion brands in one of the many ‘accidents’ that plague the garment industry.
Fashion Revolution is a global coalition of designers, academics, writers, business leaders and parliamentarians calling for systemic reform of the fashion supply chain.
SUPPLY CHAIN = cadena de suministro
In short, we believe that 1133 is too many people to lose from the planet in one factory, on one terrible day without that standing for something.
Fashion Revolution sees the Rana Plaza disaster as a metaphorical call to arms, and Fashion Revolution Day, to be held annually on the 24th of April, will keep the most vulnerable in the supply chain in the public eye.
We need it to show the world that change is possible.

We want to use the power of fashion to inspire a permanent change in the fashion industry and reconnect the broken links in the supply chain. At the moment of purchase, most of us are unaware of the processes and impacts involved in the creation of a garment. We need to reconnect through a positive narrative, to understand that we aren’t just purchasing a garment or accessory, but a whole chain of value and relationships.
TO BE UNAWARE = no ser consciente
GARMENT = prenda de ropa

It takes a lot to make a garment. Not just the bits we hear about – the designers, the brands, the shops, the catwalk shows and the parties – but also the farmers who grow cotton, the ginners, spinners, weavers, dyers, sewers and other factory workers without whom the industry would not exist. These people, the people who make our clothes are hidden from us, often at their own expense.
