Woman alleges her hands were burned with hot oil and she was locked up for 15 days without food. FMTNews AbusedBangladeshWorker
DHAKA: Bangladesh called yesterday for a migrant worker to be repatriated from Saudi Arabia after her tearful video alleging sexual abuse highlighted the exploitation faced by poor Asians working abroad.
“I perhaps won’t live longer. Please save me. They locked me up for 15 days and barely gave me any food. They burned my hands with hot oil,” the 25-year-old Akter said. But Foreign Minister A K Abdul Momen said Thursday his government would not ban women from going to Saudi Arabia for work. Both women said they were promised hospital janitor jobs but were tricked into being household maids.
