Workers at Gupta-owned mines protest at banks that will shut Gupta accounts
Mine workers employed by Gupta-owned mines in Mpumalanga and the North West are marching on banks in various towns to protest the closure of company bank accounts. Gupta-linked news channel ANN7 reported on Tuesday morning that thousands were expected to march in Hartbeesfontein‚ Klerksdorp‚ Delmas‚ Hendrina and Middelburg. According to the news broadcaster‚ mining communities are saying the banks must not let ordinary workers and their families suffer because of their own "political agendas". A man‚ who the news channel does not identify‚ says the communities are giving the banks seven days to respond to their demands.
