Greater Noida LK Choudhury

LK Choudhury, the managing director of a company in Greater Noida was beaten to death


Graziano, the electronics company attacked today has nearly 600 employees. It is a large Italian multinational, LK Choudhury who died at work had been the managing director for 10 years.


The managing director of a company in Greater Noida, just outside Delhi, was beaten to death on Monday by workers, who were fired two months ago. Another 34 people, all from the company's management have been injured in the riots that took place inside the office building. This is what was left after a 30-minute riot at this huge multinational office in Greater Noida. The trouble began at 12.30 pm when 200 workers arrived outside the office behind me. They were invited in by Human Resources managers. Seventy workers went into the office and began attacking the management. The MD arrived to help control the situation. The workers attacked the MD for 30 minutes with sticks. They hit him repeatedly on his head. Doctors say he died of those injuries. At the hospital, his wife, a college lecturer and son a class 12 student are surrounded by evidence of the sort of fury he was subjected to. The police is unable to explain how the 25 guards at the company were unable to control the rioting workers. At least 250 workers were sitting outside. As soon as the gate was opened, they barged in and the guards who were present at that time started running here and there. By the time the guards gathered together, they had already done the damage.
