“At present, over 10,000 of our workers are in jail.

“And the situation is so difficult for them — they are kept in small cages, deprived of good food and water and not allowed to meet their lawyers.

“They are being treated as if they are foreign enemies of the country, but even then, prisoners of war to have rights.”
