Dozens of Justice Administration workers have gathered this Thursday in front of the judicial headquarters in Arrecife in support of colleagues who remain locked up in Madrid as a form of protest. Four members of the Strike Committee have been locked up since last Tuesday, June 6, in the Ministry of Justice, with the aim of being received by a "valid interlocutor" to negotiate with the workers.
After two months of strike, one of them indefinite, the unions CSIF, CCOO, STAJ and UGT allege that "the attitude of the Ministry of Justice is of absolute contempt towards the Justice officials and towards the citizens, given that more than 500,000 trials and more than five million judicial actions have already been suspended throughout the country."
Likewise, they have classified as "classist and guild-like" the treatment offered by the socialist minister Pilar Llop to judges and prosecutors, "who without moving from their seats, obtained a considerable increase in their remuneration", according to these unions. In this line, they stressed that it is "inadmissible and unfair for 90% of the justice personnel and is causing with its indignity that in addition to having the services paralyzed, the tension is increased with several lockdowns that are taking place in the courts of Spain."
