  • 9 years ago
Public transportation in San Salvador and surround areas has resumed with the end of a gang-enforced strike. The four day strike was imposed by criminal gangs to pressure the government to include them in talks on public security. Nine bus drivers were killed for failing to adhere to the strike. The government mobilized 600 soldiers and police to protect drivers and passengers. Gerardo Torres reports for teleSUR
