Suntracs Fight Against the Closure of Bank Accounts Continues

The decision by the bank Caja de Ahorros to close the bank accounts of Suntracs, arguing that some of the funds come from activities related to money laundering and terrorist organizations, was the trigger for this mobilization of the union.  This week concludes with members of the Single Union of Construction Workers (Suntracs) demonstrating in the streets of the capital city and the interior of the country.  Road blockades during the morning and midday hours have generated traffic congestion, affecting the movement of drivers and pedestrians to their destinations.  The leaders of Suntracs have denounced persecution against social and union leaders who defend national sovereignty, and are determined to defend their rights in the streets, as well as in the legal, political and ideological spheres.
