Suites données aux recommandations du comité et du Conseil d’administration - Rapport No. 350, Juin 2008

Effect given to the recommendations of the Committee and the Governing Body

1. 79. At its meeting in November 2007, the Committee examined allegations that Ms Suyapa Martínez, an official of the National Association of Vendors, Small Traders and Similar Workers (ANTRAVEPECOS), had been detained and prosecuted for terrorist acts, when in fact this was due to her participation in a protest against the eviction, by court order, of informal economy vendors and traders by the municipal authorities of Apopa. The Committee requested the Government to transmit the decision handed down in respect of this trade union official and trusted that the judicial authority would issue a ruling in the very near future [see 348th Report, para. 583].
2. 80. In its communication dated 17 December 2007, the Government states that the legal proceedings against Ms Suyapa Martínez for offences of serious injury, damage and aggravated damage have been definitively dismissed by the judicial authority.
3. 81. The Committee notes this information.
