The breaking point that started it all was when four state-owned companies in Tuzla were privatized. This is where most employees in the place were employed. The companies reportedly decided to sell all their assets, stop paying the workers, and file for bankruptcy between 2002-2008.
Tuzla leader Sead Causevic says his government can do nothing to correct what has been of the past and told despondent workers to turn to the courts.
A woman named Vildana interviewed by Reuters said, "It took four years of war to destroy it and vandals now burned it in one day. This is just as in 1992."
