CORTE MADERA, Calif., March 27, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Smart-tek Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:STTK) announced today that it has been made aware that RFID Ltd., a publicly traded company on the Pink Sheets, has leveled some misleading accusations about the efficacy of its proprietary RTAC-PM Bird Flu Containment and Monitoring System.
"While we welcome competition which validates the viability of the market for our system, we take great exception to unsubstantiated claims challenging our ability to develop such a system and implement it in the People's Republic of China or any other nation similarly faced with this monumental issue," said Perry Law, President of Smart-tek. "Accordingly, we have brought the matter to our legal counsel to address this very serious issue. Should these actions continue, the Company will have no other choice but to seek full financial and legal recourse against the offending company," said Law.
"Clearly, as a fully reporting public company listed on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, we are extremely sensitive to the nature of releasing information that is nothing but absolutely factual," said Law.
"While our wholly owned subsidiary, Smart-tek Communications, Inc. is a market leader in integrated security, voice and data communication systems, it is important to note the public entity, Smart-tek Solutions Inc., is a technology holding company in the security and surveillance sector. As such, we have utilized our experience and expertise to develop a system to address perhaps one of the most critical healthcare issues of the 21st Century," said Law. "We want our valued shareholders to be assured that we have 'the better mousetrap' and it is our firm conviction that your support and loyalty will be rewarded with our continued success."
