Legal dispute over union blockades in Argentina
Overview
Union leader Maximiliano Cabaleyro was acquitted by Judge Alejandro López of the Criminal Oral Court No. 2 regarding charges of criminal property disturbance. The ruling stated that Cabaleyro’s actions during 2021 protests at the Rey Distribución plant in San Pedro were an exercise of the right to strike. Following his acquittal and release from house arrest, Cabaleyro claimed his detention was a ‘political setup’ and alleged that the plant owners provided untruthful testimony.
The acquittal drew condemnation from the Sociedad Rural Argentina. The organization expressed concern that the ruling could undermine the rule of law, arguing that while union freedoms must be respected, they should not be used to justify ‘violence, extortion, and blockades’ that infringe upon the rights of third parties and private property.
