Armed men believed to robbers, reportedly invaded a mining site belonging to Hansol Mines on Saturday and subjected the workers to severe beatings and intimidation. The robbers, according to the site manager for Hansol Mines, Mr. Evans Adropa, were dressed in military apparels and armed to the teeth. Speaking on Okay FM, Mr. Adropa stated that before the robbers began their operation at the site; they heard gunshots being fired but never took to their heels because they knew they were operating on their legitimate site. However, things turned ugly when the courageous "robbers" attacked their targets and forcefully collected �every pesewa� and gold nuggets the workers had unearthed. Mr. Evans Adropa disclosed that he had to hide in a nearby bush and call the police to find out if they had instructed some of their men to carry out an operation as despicable as the one he was witnessing. He revealed that he was given a negative response and informed by the police that the �military men� could be �armed robbers�. The armed robbers were said to have run into the bush when the police arrived at the scene. Fortunately for the security force, they managed to arrest four of the suspected armed robbers but have refused to disclose their identities.
