Bangladesh: security forces fire on garment workers
Dhaka, 13 Aug - Over 5,000 workers at Reedisha Knitex factory staged a demonstration inside during their lunch break to demand a pay rise. Their demands being ignored by management, they set about ransacking the factory. This sparked a clash with factory officials, 15 of whom were injured. The workers then blocked the main Dhaka-Mymensingh Highway for three hours. 300 Rapid Action Batallion (RAB) and police personnel arrived and fired gunshots and teargas into the crowd and baton charged, injuring 50.
