Chinese Company refutes employee beating claims

China Geo Construction Company in Kasama has refuted allegations that a Zambian worker was yesterday beaten up by his Chinese supervisor.

Company Administrative Officer Peter Zulu dismissed the assertion and challenged the named worker to substantiate his claim.

Yesterday, a worker whose name has been withheld for fear of victimization charged that the named Chinese national beat him up for merely failing to buy a particular type of sausage.

The visibly disturbed worker also revealed that this is the second time he was being victimized and demanded that the law takes its course over the matter.
