The 26-year-old Zhang, dressed in merely a pair of red briefs and
a pair of slippers, stationed herself outside a Shenyang funiture factory
where she used to work, in Northeast China's Liaoning Province on Sunday.
The woman began working for the factory this May but packed her bags and left
without getting a single penny of her due pay, which she alleges amounts to
8,000 yuan.
A police wagon was at the scene but didn't take any action to stop the naked
grievance venting, which even brought on a traffic jam as hundreds thronged to
see what was happening.
The woman was outside in daylight for about three hours trying to use her
naked body getting back the money she said she was due.
It is not yet known whether the woman received the money or
not.
