A spokesperson for Chinese automaker BYD has objected to reports about poor conditions at a construction site in Brazil where it is building a factory, saying the allegations were aimed at "smearing" China and Chinese brands.

Earlier in the week, a task force led by Brazilian prosecutors said it had rescued 163 Chinese nationals it said were working in "slavery-like" conditions at the site. A video from the Labor Prosecutor's Office of dorms housing the workers showed beds with no mattresses and rudimentary cooking facilities.
