PHUKET: -- Sea gypsies in Rawai threw stones and insults at builders from Baron World Trade Co yesterday after the construction company made a wall of boulders to block access to the site and began digging on the disputed land.

About 100 sea gypsies gathered to stop construction workers while police and army officers looked on.

The sea gypsies claimed the boulders blocked access to their sacred ceremonial grounds. The villagers reportedly threw stones at the construction workers and then removed the offending boulders.
