Protestors gathered in the main hall of Constitución Railway Station on Thursday night demanding that the head of the Unión Ferroviaria (Railway Union), José Pedraza, and his deputy Juan Carlos Fernández, both of whom they accuse of Ferreyra’s murder, be sent to jail for their part in his death.

Thousands of people have attended marches and protests over the last three months against the violence but still no persons have been brought to justice for his death.
