SEF strikes causing airport confusion By Paula Martins, in News, Community · 14-05-2021 01:00:00 · 0 Comments
Strike action from SEF union members led to delays at airports as the inspectors call for their functions to remain.
The murder of Ihor Homeniuk sparked outrage around SEF and this wave of indignation led the Government to declare the transfer of SEF functions to other entities. Inspectors are unhappy about this decison and went on strike on 7 May, which affected the operation of airports.
The Portuguese Immigration and Borders Service’s (SEF) reputation will never been the same again. More than a year after the death of the Ukrainian citizen, Ihor Homeniuk, a victim of SEF inspectors, the three men accused of the murder, on 10 May, were sentenced to nine and seven years in prison.
