JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – South African police used rubber bullets on Friday to disperse strikers from the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU) who were blocking the entrance to a mine operated by London-listed Diamondcorp, a police spokesman said.
Police spokesman Stephen Thakeng told Reuters that four of the striking workers were injured and 16 were arrested for public violence in the latest flare-up of labour unrest in South Africa’s mining sector.
