According to information received late last evening group of Colamb villagers 
have stopped Fomentos mining transportation works again. Fometos were carrying 
on mining trucks from the forest land. Villagers reportedly have filed 
complaint against the mining company for violating forest laws and transporting 
the ore from Forest. Several trucks were stuck inside the Hiralal Khodidas mine 
with lease number 06/1949 after villagers squatted on the road passing through 
Forest Land.
 
Villagers are demanding that this mine be closed down. In the meanwhile there 
are unconfirmed reports that Police has provided escort service to Fomento 
mining manager en route to Police police station to register complaint against 
agitating villagers many of whom are tribals depending upon agriculture.
