Speaking on behalf of the protesters, a worker told the daily that the company bus had transported them to the police station and the officers there were “co-operative and kind”. The police contacted the company owners and got an assurance that all dues would be paid by next week, according to the paper. On this assurance the gathering dispersed, it said.
