Debris removal started in the mine where 5 workers died: 'Evidence is being obscured' reaction from Independent Maden-İş

Debris removal efforts were initiated following the collapse at İmbat Madencilik in Manisa, where 5 workers lost their lives and 2 workers were injured.

The Independent Maden-İş Union, which lost a manager and 5 members in the disaster, expressed concern that evidence might be destroyed during the work.

The statement stated the following:

“WE WILL NOT ALLOW THE EVIDENCE TO BE BLACKED!

The scene of the massacre at İmbat Mining, in which 5 miners were killed and 2 miners were injured, is being cleared of evidence under the name of "debris removal".

On behalf of our union, we applied to the Soma Chief Public Prosecutor's Office, requesting that this work aimed at obscuring evidence be stopped and the evidence be protected.

Public institutions, especially the prosecutor's office, must immediately take action to prevent the destruction of evidence.

We will not forget, we will not let others forget, we will not forgive!”
