Speakers at the press conference recalled that Kim Ju Gyong, a part time woman worker of the Samsung Group, died shortly ago.

Her death was caused by man-killing labor under extremely hard conditions, they noted, adding that this was a clear industrial disaster.

This being a hard reality, the management side misinterpreted her death by her carelessness and made undisguised efforts to bar reporters from interviewing her bereaved family in the venue of her funeral, they noted.

They accused the management side of threatening and appeasing the bereaved family and trade unions keen to probe the exact cause and truth about her death, while letting loose a spate of slanders and calumnies against her.

They urged the management side to kneel down and make an apology for its unethical action.
