Wildcats; over 15,000 Bangladeshi garment workers "go berserk" and attack factories over non-payment and low wages Two major outbreaks of garment workers' fury have occurred this week. http://libcom.org/news/wildcats-over-15000-bangladeshi-garment-workers-go-berserk-attack-factories-over-non-paymen

On Sunday night (May 10) at the Rupashi Sweater factory in Narayanganj (a river port town in central Bangladesh and centre of jute and textiles industries) bosses were attacked by a group of workers demanding their unpaid wages. When they turned up for work on Monday morning, workers found themselves locked out of the factory.

The workers then marched to other factories - shouting slogans for higher wages - and brought out thousands of other workers. (Some reports indicate that two groups of workers clashed at one factory - whether because they refused to join the demonstrators and/or because they were hurt when the factory was attacked is unclear. Photos suggest the clash may have been between workers and security and management personnel of the factory attacked.)
