The peaceful and symbolic action conducted in 2009 by Ecologists in Action at the gates of the Port Authority of Cartagena (APC), to protest against the proposed installation of a container terminal in the Gorguel and Logistics Activities Zone (ZAL) attached, goes one step further.
The environmental group takes to the courts resolution by which the APC sanctions, without justification, to each of the 8 activists who participated in that action, with the exorbitant amount of 1,000 euros.
Although, remember, "initially threatened with fines that could reach 60,000 euros per person."
For Natalia Martin, responsible for costs of the association, "it seems that this resolution meaningless want to punish the APC Ecologists in Action directly oppose its star project."
He adds that whatever the outcome "any penalty or demonstration of power by the APC will desist in our efforts to protect the environment."
In this sense, Martin says that no matter what happens, "continue to oppose the location where the Gorguel, since we consider a real attack on the natural and cultural values ​​of the area."
