Site death sparks Sonapur protest [UAE]
More than 1,000 workers from Dubai Contracting Company (DCC) staged a demonstration at their Sonapur labour camp in Dubai, following the site death of a co-worker. Murad Ali, a 30-year-old Pakistani construction worker, was electrocuted while working on the Millennium Tower on Sheikh Zayed Road last week... But the contractor has hit back at the allegations. “We are a very old company, we treat our workers well...” said Iyad bin Khadra, personnel manager at DCC.
