"the Police clashed with striking textile workers, who for the third day in a row protesting in Bangladesh. Over 5,000 workers are reported to have blocked a highway outside the capital Dhaka. Police fired tear gas and rubber bullets against the demonstrators who threw stones against the police."

"– at Least 12 police officers were injured when they threw stones at us. We shot tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse the demonstrators. 12 factories were closed down, " says police spokesperson Sana Shaminur Rahman."

"at Least 50 protesters are also reported to have been injured, according to local media."

"They were protesting textile workers demanding that their wages be increased. The minimum wage for Bangladesh's four million garment workers was raised by 51 per cent in december, to 95 dollars a month.
