DHAKA: Angry readymade garment workers confined Managing Director of Tuba Group, Delwar Hossain, in his office demanding wage and bonuses ahead of the Eid-ul-Azha.

He had been seized since 9:00am on Saturday at Badda’s Hossain market by thousand workers.

Officer-in-Charge of Badda Thana Iqbal Hossain confirmed the matter to banglanews.

Workers said they confined Delwar as he was plotting to shut two factories in city’s Badda area in a bid to ignore due wages and bonus of over 1500 workers.

A deadly inferno in Tazreen Fashion Limited had killed over 100 workers last November and Delwar is accused for the incident.  

Gulshan Zone’s Assistant Police Commissioner Nur Alam told banglanews that additional police forces were deployed to avert any untoward situation.
