Accesses to the Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport, located in Brasilia, were closed on Tuesday morning. The reason for stopping the passage was a group of demonstrators protesting against the injunction of Justice which determines the interruption of activities Telexfree, which is suspected of setting up a Ponzi scheme.

The demonstration began as a motorcade and then blocked the roads towards the airport entrance and exit. 11am slow traffic in the area already affected other pathways. Many passengers abandoned their cars and taxis and followed the path on foot, carrying their bags, not to miss the flight.

Around 700 people attended the protest, carrying posters and banners against the termination of business activities Telexfree.
Protesters ask that justice authorizes the company to make payments.
