PROTEST: The production units of Kohat Cement Company remained closed for eleventh consecutive day as protesters burnt tyres and blocked Rawalpindi-Kohat road for traffic on Monday.

The KCC had been suffering huge losses due to the forced closure of the company by NWFP Minister for Housing and Planning Amjad Afridi and hundreds of local people and expelled workers 11 days ago.

The brother of the minister, Malik Abbas Afridi, while leading the protesters including local people and expelled workers set a one week deadline for the administration for the immediate installation of a filter system at the new white cement plant and jobs for the people.

Speaking on the occasion, he said that dust emitting from the plants was causing diseases like tuberculosis and chest ailments but the company was not serious about the safety of the people and the economic uplift of the backward area despite earning millions of rupees as profit every day.

Later the police facilitated negotiations of nazims, Malik Abbas and elders with the administration of the company after which the demonstrators dispersed peacefully.

The KCC management had been claiming that they had already got filter plants at the grey and white cement units and some of the workers who accepted golden handshake last year were now conspiring to blackmail the company for reappointment.
