IPhone maker - Foxconn, Shenzhen suicides

Inhumane working conditions, communist military-style management methods, ill-treatment, intimidation, overworked depressed staff, is most likely the root cause of the suicides.  Or are they trying to blame it on ghosts now?
A Chinese ghost story?
The factory site was formerly barren land, a lake "Ghost Head Lake" and a mass burial ground named "Pizhai Yuan" (babies) where more than 1000 babies were buried here 200 to 300 years ago. The employees quarters where most victims jumped is located between "Pizhai Yuan" and "Ghost Head Lake". The lake has claimed a lot of lives previously.
Read news article here: Daily chilli especially about the 5th victim claiming "something" following him around, also another female victim walking to the rooftop like she was being "dragged" by an invisible hand.
So did the employees became emotionally and mentally ill... or were they haunted?
This factory makes IPhones etc....more than 300,000 workers.
