SUNCA Union Fund Under Investigation: Allegations of Misuse and Lack of Transparency

Fiscalía Investigates SUNCA Union Fund Amidst Allegations of Irregular Payments Montevideo, Uruguay – An investigation by the Uruguayan Fiscalía into the SUNCA union fund has sparked controversy, with allegations of irregular payments to union members surfacing. A recent video posted online by a social media user, ‘nano máquina,’ has added fuel to the fire, expressing concerns about the handling of the fund and the lack of transparency. The investigation centers around alleged irregular financial transactions and the distribution of checks to union members. Authorities have lifted bank secrecy to trace the flow of funds. The video features a man who passionately describes the situation, claiming, "They robbed us, or they are robbing us with the housing fund, and nobody says anything." He also alleges that Senator Castillo is aware of the situation. While the video provides a perspective from a concerned citizen, it is important to note that it presents unverified allegations. The Fiscalía has not yet released a formal statement on the specific accusations made in the video. The SUNCA union has also yet to respond to the claims. The investigation is ongoing, and further information is expected to be released as the Fiscalía continues its inquiry. The outcome of this investigation will have significant implications for the SUNCA union and the broader labor movement in Uruguay.
