End to evictions in Spain? Locksmiths refuse to help oust owners amid austerity drive

There's one glaring error in this article: the people are not "homeowners." All took loans to purchase the property and the lender owns the building as collateral until the loan has been repaid. The people living in the building morally, ethically, and legally do not own the structure, nor do they have any "right" to it, nor do they have any lien on the lender. Their need does not trump the lenders' rights.
