On February 27, 2021, the General Secretary of the Southern Madrid Trade Union of CGT was arrested in one of the demonstrations held in more than 60 cities of the State in Defense of Public Health, called by the Anti-Privatization Coordinator of the Health. The rest of the demonstrations passed without incident. But in Madrid, a group completely alien to the organization, members of the Frontal Bastion of neo-Nazi ideology, came to the place where the demonstration began, together with the Madrid Regional Ministry of Health at C / Aduana, with the clear intention of February to provoke. They were expelled amid boos by the crowd shouting "Fascists out of our neighborhoods." The Police alleged, to the surprise of the protesters, that they were "defending the right to demonstrate" of the central bastion Falangist group. After a series of discussions and a firm peaceful action by the security cordon of the organizing organizations, our colleague was arrested. He was released several hours later, but with the charges of Disobedience and Resistance, and summoned to testify, on June 10, in the courts of the Plaza de Castilla in Madrid. The CGT Territorial Confederation in Madrid Castilla la Mancha and Extremadura demands the acquittal of the detained comrade, and has carried out a concentration in solidarity in the courts of Plaza de Castilla, This action is against criminalizing and repressing social and union protest.
