(ANSA) - Bologna, December 3 - Two employees of a
Ravenna-based construction company said Monday they were being
held "hostage" in Kuwait after a 22 million euro contract was
rescinded.
CMC workers Andrea Urciuoli and Ricardo Pinela, who have been
in Kuwait City against their will for days, appealed for help
from the Italian and Portuguese foreign ministries.
"We're like prisoners taken hostage, shut up at home 24 hours
a day and now that the request for a deal has been revealed
we're even more worried because all the suppliers will come to
us," they told ANSA.
"We have no news and everything is silent. We need the
intervention of the foreign ministers of Portugal and Italy".
