Hundreds of workers demonstrated outside a Nokia factory in southern China on Wednesday to protest against what they called unfair treatment following the sale of the company's mobile phones business to Microsoft Corp, news agency STT reported quoting Reuters.
 
According to Reuters, riot police beat up four workers on Wednesday morning and took them away, several witnesses told Reuters.
 
The demonstrators said they would definitely continue to fight until they get what is fair.
 
Nokia told Reuters that interaction between protesters and police had been "restrained (and) peaceful", adding it was continuing to talk to the protesters.
 
Dongguang factory has about 5,000 employees.
