Former Avianca CEO to be heard over spying on labor union: report

Former Avianca CEO to be heard over spying on labor union: report
by Adam Veitch June 3, 2019

The controversial former CEO of Colombia’s flagship airline Avianca will be heard by prosecutors over the illegal spying on striking pilots, according to newspaper El Tiempo.

Former CEO German Efromovich and his former CFO Renato Covelo, will have to clarify whether they knew about the illegal spying on pilot union ACDAC during a 2017 strike, the newspaper reported on Sunday.

The summons is part of a wider investigation led by the Prosecutor General’s office into illegal spying carried out by former members of the security forces in collusion with corrupt prosecution officials.

. . .

However, despite all these denials, the prosecution has already shown that over 53 days, the calls, WhatsApp messages and emails between striking pilots and trade union figures were made available to the company.
