The Mongolian Altjin Corporation continues to argue with the SAPU trade center fire victims.
On April 30, a group of 20 SAPU victims went to Altjin’s office to
demand the money that G. Altan promised them last week. The victims
have been fighting to be reimbursed for their lost goods for over four
months and last week it appeared that a deal had been struck. Altan,
general director of the Altjin Group, told the hunger striking SAPU
victims that she had raised Tg4 billion in order to repay the traders.
She paid the hunger strikers on site in cash, and reportedly gave money
to approximately 170 victims, which leaves 500 unaccounted for.
However, now new problems are arising in the exact amount of money
that should be reimbursed. Many of the traders were forced to take out
loans from the bank during the four months that they were waiting, and
now many of them are demanding that they be reimbursed for that money
as well. While at the Altjin Group’s office though, the victims were
arguing with an assistant and the Director of Public Relations, not
anyone with any authority to commit to, or give out money. One of the
victims (or possibly a relative) went so far as to hit the assistant
for trying to leave the office.... Continued on: http://mongolia.neweurasia.net/?p=136
