A maid who fled her employer after an attempted rape and was then thrown in a detention centre just two days after she gave birth was one of 26 distressed men and women who make up the latest repatriated abuse victims from Malaysia. Detained for as long as 18 months, the migrant construction workers, fishermen and maids spoke yesterday of the abuses that led them to flee employment, including attempted rape, beatings, overwork, virtual starvation and withheld wages…. The group was repatriated by the Cambodian Embassy with the help of the Ministry of Interior, NGOs Coordination of Action Research on AIDS and Mobility (CARAM), Winrock and USAID.
