Hoy is reporting that five transport organizations are threatening to hold marches and work stoppages in the coming days in response to the sentences handed down to transport union leaders Antonio Marte, Blas Peralta, Gervasio de la Rosa and Alfredo Pulinario (Cambita). Conatra, Fenatrado, Central Nacional de Transporte, the Northern Region Workers Transport Federation and the Bus Owners Association have all announced these stoppages because they believe the accused are innocent.
