Workers vandalise RMG factory
Monday, 11 August 2014
Workers of a readymade garments factory have vandalised their workplace at Kashimpur in Gazipur, after failing to trace a colleague missing for two days.
Industrial Police intervened and removed the angry workers from a road they had blocked at Noapara Monday. The management of Multifab Limited shut the factory for a day after the violence, according to a news agency.
Gazipur Industrial Police Sub-Inspector (SI) Md Nazrul Islam said the workers had begun an agitation claiming Mehedi Hasan, 24, a cutting-section worker, had been abducted and murdered.
“The workers smashed windows, came out of the factory, and started throwing stones at police. Police charged baton to contain the situation," Islam said.
