MALTA'S top diplomat in Brussels took the fall and

Maltese.

'Mr Tough
Guy'...
MATTHEW VELLA
A group of Turkish construction
workers recruited by an international
construction company to work on the
Fortina project, are striking out near
the Fortina construction site.
The workers are insisting they have
received no payment for their services
for the past months.
The group of around 80 are em-
ployed by TACA Construction, a
Turkish company which brought
them over to Malta in November last
year to work on the pro-
ject in Sliema.
