Somuncu, Mustafa Umut Somuncu and Gaye Somuncu wherever
          they are. They will not liberate themselves from us. We will con-
          tinue our struggle to get back the other machines they removed.”

               “The period of running for it has come to an end”

               The lawyers of the workers, Behic Asci, made a statement that

          included the following:




               “Today the Kazova workers are confiscating the machines in
          the factory against what is owed to them. This is a victory and a
          gain for the resistance since January. This is a situation that goes
          beyond whether they get what is owed to them. It has become a

          tradition for employers to deny workers what is owed to them.
          They remove products, they take away what has been produced.
          It has become a preferred way for employers to operate. So what
          the workers have done here is a step forward. I think that the pe-
          riod where the bosses simply leave workers in the lurch and run
          for it has come to an end.”
