Gama ‘had role in Kurdish displacement’

CONSTRUCTION firm Gama is facing further criticism for its role in a controversial dam project which has displaced more than 200,000 Kurds in South East Turkey.

NUI Galway expert Maggie Renait also questioned why Gama's record had not been properly assessed before the firm was allowed to enter the Irish market place where it has been hit with accusations of wage fraud and underpayment.

Ms Renait, in association with the Kurdish Human Rights Project (KHRP) in London, has just published the latest in a series of comprehensive reports on the impact of a huge series of ongoing dam building projects in South East Turkey.
