Conflict Incident Report

On 21 Mar 16, the “We Want Accountability” campaign accused employees from the Sukleen waste management firm of beating up its protesters during a sit-in outside the company's headquarters in Karantina. The campaign also posted pictures of a protester with a bruised face on its Facebook page. A spokesperson for the campaign said the sit-in was organized “after the cabinet renewed Sukleen's contract despite the presence of a judicial ruling against it on charges of bribery and corruption.” She also confirmed that several people were lightly injured in a clash between protesters and Sukleen employees and guards.
