Carlos Ortega Carvajal is a union and political leader in Venezuela. He was sentenced to a 16 year prison term for his role in the 2002 december strike (not to be confused with 2002 April attempted coup d'etat), and escaped from prison on August 13, 2006. In 2001, Ortega was elected leader of the Confederación de Trabajadores de Venezuela (CTV), the largest union in Venezuela. The results were disputed and the Supreme Court refused to ratify them.
