Some weeks back The Blanket published an article of mine in which I drew attention to the campaign of intimidation, violence and murder against trade union activists in Colombia. I have just received an email reporting the killing of two banana workers, Juan Montiel and Emilio Villeras Durán, who worked on the Ceiba y Circasia plantations. I have attached a statement issued by the International Union of Food, Agricultural, Hotel, Restaurant, Catering, Tobacco and Allied Workers' Associations (IUF). I feel this issue is one that readers of The Blanket may be interested in responding to. Yours etc,
