A Florida business owner is being held inside his company’s factory in China by a group of angry workers who say they haven’t been paid.
Chip Starnes, 42, say, the employees who first took him captive on June 21, have denied him sleep, rawstory.com reports.
“We women can’t hold the boss hostage,” one employee, Gao Ping, told CBS News, rawstory also reported. “We’re negotiating. He didn’t pay us wages.”
Starnes has denied owing his captors two months’ salary and severance package after laying off about 30 workers.
