The City’s Procuracy pressed charges against Labour Minister Carlos Tomada over alleged “abuse of authority” and “aggravated illegal detention,” after he sent the police to a City official’s home and forced him to attend a meeting that looked to solve the current conflict affecting the subway system.
The complaint also includes the national deputy director of Labour Relations, Adrián Caneto and was lodged in Penal Court 10.
The Procuracy came to the decision after the National Government used a public force to force the head of the Subterraneos de Buenos Aires (Sbase) organization, Juan Pablo Piccardo, to attend a collective bargaining meeting between Metrovías and the head of the subway workers union last week.
