SPAIN-POLITICS-ECONOMY-PUBLIC-DEBT-FOOD-PROTEST
Juan Manuel Sanchez Gordillo (2nd L), mayor of Marinaleda and member of the regional Andalusian parliament representing the United Left (IU) party, and the secretary general of the SAT union (Andalusian Workers' Union) Diego Canamero (R) react after learning of the release of two fellow activists who were detained after being involved in the taking of goods from supermarkets and the giving of the goods to a local charity, on August 9, 2012. The Spanish government issued arrest warrants on August 8 for left-wing activists, including Gordillo, after a large group of left-wing activists occupied and looted supermarkets in Ecija and Arcos de la Frontera on August 7 to redistribute goods to a local non-profit providing food to the needy and those affected by the recession. Gordillo is currently participatin in a land occupation action and protest at the "Turquillas" camp, farmland owned by the Ministry of Defence which the activists say is misused and should be redistributed to local families and farmers, east of Sevilla, between the towns of Osuna and Ecija.
