Indonesian maid's torture highlights lack of helper protection

  • 10 months ago
Beaten, forced to eat animal faeces and chained to a dog cage -- the abuse of an Indonesian maid, Siti Khotimah, highlights the government's failure to protect domestic workers at home even as it moves to help those abroad.

"They later chained me, on both my legs, my arms and in the neck. They also used handcuff. My head was smacked to the wall and floor," said Khotimah.
