💨 Abstract

El Salvador President Nayib Bukele ordered the arrest of five bus company heads for defying his order to offer free transport after a highway closure. The move is seen as another example of his heavy-handed tactics and accusations of undermining democratic institutions. The arrests resulted in confusion and chaos, with long lines and overcrowded buses. The government denied the country is a police state.
