Manama, March 13 (IANS) More than 100 Indian, Pakistani and Filipi** workers of Mercury Middle East, who went on strike for **n-payment of salaries, have been paid their wages after the intervention of diplomats and labour officials, a media report said on Friday. The firm said the workers who were on strike since February 28 were paid the outstanding salaries on Wednesday, Gulf Daily News reported, adding that an Indian embassy official who visited the workers at their accommodation reportedly refused to leave on Wednesday until the men were paid. Mercury Middle East was sub-contracted to carry out work on the Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay project by Dubai-based Six Construct. "The name of Six Construct has unfortunately been misused by Mercury," Six Construct managing director Pierre Sironval said.
