They ordered five days of arrest against minTrabajo for contempt

The Colombian Labor Court ordered five days of detention and a fine equivalent to three minimum wages against Minister of Labor Antonio Sanguino for contempt of court. The ruling followed a petition by Green Party representative Katherine Miranda, who requested information about investigations into allegations of gender-based violence and harassment at RTVC (now Inravision). Despite receiving responses, the court deemed them insufficient, giving Sanguino 48 hours to provide more detailed answers, which he failed to do. Miranda criticized Sanguino’s refusal to comply, suggesting possible concealment of information. The court ruled that Sanguino must serve his detention at police facilities, though he plans to appeal. The case highlights ongoing controversies within RTVC during the administration of Hollman Morris, including allegations of favoritism towards President Gustavo Petro’s agenda.
