In protest, workers at the factory went on strike and were attacked by private security forces. Who used dogs to attack strikers and security forces dislocated several peoples arms. In response, workers would fight back and lay down in front of security vans and military vehicles. Eventually, the private security forces evicted all workers and illegally fired them.
