KOSOVSKA MITROVICA - KFOR members Monday prevented over 200 Serbian employees of two Trepca complex factories and the Stari Trg mine from getting to work, acting in keeping with the Sunday UNMIK decision to bar Serbs from the three working collectives.
Kosovska Mitrovica regional administrator Martin Garrod explained late Sunday said that the decision was due to the inability of the international forces to guarantee the security of the Serbian workers in the three working collectives located in the southern part of Kosovska Mitrovica.
Despite the decision, over 200 Serbian workers took off Monday morning for the car-battery factory, the zinc metallurgical plant and the Stari Trg mine, but were stopped by strong KFOR troops and barbed wire on the bridge which links the northern and southern sections of the town.
After much persuasion, the Serbian workers returned home.
