A woman from\u00a0Hyderabad, who was trafficked to Saudi Arabia’s capital city\u00a0Riyadh, has been rescued by the\u00a0Ministry of External Affairs\u00a0(MEA). On her return to India on September 11, the woman thanked External Affairs Minister\u00a0Sushma Swaraj\u00a0for helping her.
\nThe woman was trafficked to\u00a0Riyadh\u00a0in October last year by an agent on the promise of a reputable job. The matter came to light after the victim’s sister informed the MEA about it.
\nNarrating her ordeal, the victim said, “The agent sent me to\u00a0Riyadh. I was told that I will have to cook food for the children. But there was only one person in the family. He allowed me to sleep for a few hours only and made me work all day. He also used to misbehave and beat me when I refused to work. Not only that, he also deducted my salary when I fell ill.” She further recalled, “Even during\u00a0Ramzan, he starved me for days.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
