Bangladesh: garment workers protest

Firm’s thugs attack clothes workers
A garment workers’ leader in Bangladesh disappeared after protesting at a colleague’s dismissal.
Workers went on strike over his disappearance in Tejgaon, believing he had been killed and his body hidden in the factory. The company’s bosses unleashed further violence, hiring thugs to beat up employees. Five workers were found hours later unconscious in a locked office.
War on Want Chief Executive Louise Richards met the Bangladeshi High Commissioner in London. She asked him to investigate the case, locate the whereabouts of the missing workers’ leader, establish the background of events and bring the attackers to justice.
