Miners on strike in Georgia
26.01.2011 21:15
TBILISI, January 26. Miners at the Tkibuli “Mindeli” mine in Georgia announced strike action. As the correspondent of “Rosbalt” says, quoting InterPressNews, the reason for such action was the detention by the prosecutor's office of Georgia of two senior employees of the mine. They are accused of failure to comply with safety standards, resulting in an explosion at "Mindeli" mine that killed one miner and seriously injured four people.
"Mr Sturua and Devdariani are accused of ignoring safety standards. However, they agreed on the need of the explosion, after, as the four miners said, that in the mine everything was fine and that the amount of gas did not go beyond the danger limit. And in the blast they had to get miners lifted at least 100 meters up out the way, which was not done "- one of the engineers of the mine told the news agency.
The miners believe that the detainees are not guilty over what happened, and the miners who are now being treated in a burn center in Tbilisi. The miners are not going to resume work until their detained counterparts are released.
We recall that the responsible staff of the mine, Eden Sturua and Giorgi Devdariani are charged with violation of safety rules. If their guilt is proven in court, they face imprisonment from two to five years.
The investigation continues, and it is possible that other employees of the "Mindeli” coal mine will be taken to court.
