Protesters demand release of trade unionists held under house arrest

MASS protests have been held in Italy calling for the release of eight trade unionists held under house arrest after they organised strikes and protests at major logistic companies.
The members of the Si Cobas and USB trade unions have been held for more than a week following a 350-page indictment of the Piacenza Public Prosecutor’s Office.
The trade union militants are charged with instigating strikes and protests at warehouses belonging to Amazon, FedEx-TNT and Nippon Express.
