"We Are Tired Of Being Treated Like Animals" MIGRANT WORKERS FROM VICEROY MARCH TO THE VALLEY

Over 200 migrant workers showed up on the lawn of the Post Office to meet with the Labour Commissioner on Tuesday, June 26 at 1:00 p.m. In an event that has been unprecedented in Anguilla, the public and migrant workers are alleging that the Viceroy Project is being involved in human trafficking and human rights violations. In a press release made by Viceroy, it read, “It is the policy of Viceroy Resorts and Residences to hold its contractors responsible for adhering to best employment practices, and we have already launched our own probe into this matter.” A large number of workers came in various groups with the first arriving at the Labour Commissioner’s Office. They were immediately seen while the others stayed below under the tree at the Post Office. In the meantime, another contingent of workers were reportedly walking to The Valley but were stopped on Back Street by members of the Royal Anguillian Police Force.
