Bangladesh news paper

It is highly disturbing that 16 Bangladeshi expatriate workers sent to Iraq after being properly recruited should be abducted by their employers and forced to live in squalid conditions in a building for the last seven months.

The reported forceful confinement by the employer on the pretext that these workers have not been working properly and creating “trouble” is hardly any excuse for such inhumane treatment.

This latest incident merely goes to reinforce the fact that recruiting agencies and the employers in the receiving country operate Bangladesh news paper as they please with little or no oversight by the receiving governments and our embassies. That aside, what bothers us is there is no clear indication.
