Workers of Horizon Composite Ltd observed work abstention and staged demonstration over the assault of a female worker in Boherarchala area, Gazipur yesterday morning. Factory sources said that the authorities had sacked two swing operators without prior notice on Saturday. Assistant General Manager of the factory Abul Kalam slapped Hasina Akter, a staff of Horizon Composite Ltd, as she wanted to know the reason behind the termination of her co-workers. Other workers protested the assault and took to the street demanding removal of the AGM. Later, the workers withdrew the blockade after getting assurance from the factory authorities.
