Argentina: Political trial sought against judge who acquitted Camioneros union leader in extortion case

Buenos Aires deputy Manuel Passaglia filed a complaint seeking the impeachment of judge Alejandro López, alleging misconduct in his acquittal of Camioneros leader Maximiliano Cabaleyro and six others for blockading a distributor in San Pedro. The move reflects political pressure on the judiciary over union-related rulings, though the legal merits of the acquittal remain contested.
