[Original in Chinese - Title and following summary of the article's key points provided by Business & Human Rights Resource Centre.] A 15-year-old boy was killed in September 2005 by a pair of iron pincers thrown at him by his supervisor, following a verbal dispute in the Baocheng Glass Vessel Factory in Qi County, Puzhong City, Shanxi Province. A few hundred metres from Baocheng was another glass factory hiring more than a dozen child labourers. The incident highlighted the severe child labour problems in the glass industry in Shanxi, home to factories producing the largest volume of glass products in China. More than 1/5 of the 160 glass factories in the province have used child labour. Some were found involved in torture, verbal and physical abuse of these children. Many have poor working and safety conditions.
