The workers burnt office documents, broke glass facades of the first floor of the labour accommodation building and burnt and damaged vehicles of the company on Tuesday.
Director General of Sharjah Police Brig. Humaid Mohammed Al Hudaidi, accompanied by labour officials and directors of police departments and civil defence teams rushed to the riot scene.
Al Hudaidi said the workers, through their acts, exposed the lives of at least 20 employees to danger, as they set ablaze the ground floor of the building which housed the office of the labour accommodation management. He added that the workers burnt down five cars, damaged 40 others and stoned 28 buses. Indian workers were not involved in the strike, labour ministry officials said.
