What about naming and shaming the "people" who employed her in Saudi? were they even punished?

Ruwan Perera Saturday, 28 August 2010 07:02 PM

Where is this humane right organisations? Why no voice at all?

No words can describe acts such as this! To say its "inhuman" is an understatement.

They probably didn't - these were probably taken by hospital staff and given to the journalists. Photographing and documenting unusual incidents in a operating theater nothing unusual.

Weerawansa can take up the job to go in front of the Saudi Embassy and stage a fast unto death until those in Arabia are punished

Concerned Friday, 27 August 2010 06:52 AM

Definitely concerned about what has happened - but why is the press allowed into an operating theater?

Relief from pain only from her mother land. I'm disappointed and ashamed. Why can't we stop sending our ladies to these uncivilized countries for slavery. why can't we develop the entrepreneurship and give them a hope? we must stop sending our women for unskilled jobs.
