Anti-union violence remains unchecked in Guatemala. Roberto Oswaldo Ramos, the work and disputes secretary of the Coatepeque workers’ union Sindicato de Trabajadores de Coatepeque and a member of the CUSG Advisory Council, and Wilder Hugo López, general secretary of the local urban transport union Sindicato de Microbuseros Urbanos, were assassinated due to their involvement in the trade union movement. The ITUC and its affiliates have strongly condemned these two murders.
