But not before she identified the alleged attacker — her boss. Irma Edloy’s injuries were so bad she went into a cardiac arrest several times since she was admitted into hospital on August 17. Doctors were able to revive her, until she died on August 18. Before passing away, the 35-year-old was asked by a nurse who had abused her. She pointed at her employer, ABS CBN News reports.

keith101 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 unfortunately even if she survived she would probably have been charged with adultery which is how women are treated in the middle east . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rancid Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Well, the Saudis are our staunch allies, defenders of democracy and lovers of freedom, so probably best to just ignore these type of things. Just like turning a blind eye to executions, spreading radical Islam, bombing kids in Yemen, oppressing women and breaking numerous animal rights regarding, sheep, goats and camels. First rate implacable friends like these don't grow on trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisY1 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Poverty sends these women to the ME to work as maids,...Phils, Indians, Banglas, Thais (although I remember the Govt banning them from working for these barbaric animals)....... And what will happen to her boss?.......well it pretty much goes without saying that he'll have zero issues........ My wife and I will continue my decision when travelling, never to pass through any of these countries or use their airlines....rather pay the little extra....I'll never support them!

jaidam Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Normally the rape victim would be stoned for the crime of having been raped. I do not believe this case can proceed with the woman being dead, I mean how can they punish her boss if they can't punish her? Sharia law is a modern marvel - and becoming very popular with western liberals such as Sally Kohn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuyJohninBKK Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) In the latest Wikileaks news posted here the other day, there was an account in that article about some teenage boy being raped in S.A. to the extent that his legs were broken... Really have to wonder, what goes on there seems little more than animalistic. And using that term is probably giving an undeservedly bad name to animals. "Three Saudi cables published by the WikiLeaks identified domestic workers who'd been tortured or sexually abused by their employers, giving the women's full names and passport numbers. One cable named a male teenager who was raped by a man while abroad; a second identified another male teenager who was so violently raped his legs were broken; a third outlined the details of a Saudi man detained for "sexual deviation" — a derogatory term for homosexuality.

cyberfarang Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Tragically, considering this happened in Saudi where they believe servants are slaves to be owned and not hired, the rapist will probably get away with it. Time and time again there have been reports of foreign maids and housekeepers in these middle eastern countries being abused and brutalised. There will not be justice served for this woman.

They are horrible people I feel for you Gary, but honestly, "the locals treated us like shit" is a phrase that can be said by a lot of people in a lot of countries. Now of course that doesn't make this Saudi brute right, I'm just suggesting that by keeping in mind the bigger picture, perhaps we humans as a whole could begin to address this kind of problem ?

And the problem is what? under the koran you can treat servants (slaves) any way you want.....anyway where are they going to find 4 adult males to cofess as witnesses to the rape?? Never happened!

Even though I can avail myself of relatives discounts through one top shelf ME airline, I choose to travel via other routes, e.g. Uk through northern europe, USA through HK. Costs me more ( quite a lot more ) but at least I'm not filling the coffers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Israel and its supporters are busy trying to pin the horrors committed by radical Sunni Muslims on Shiites. And these horrors are overwhelmingly committed by Sunnis. Can you believe that there are actually folks in this forum who support the intervention by Saudi Arabia with U.S. support against Yemeni Shiites? Of course, I would never accuse you of that.

I agree with your decision 100%, and practice the same for my wife and I. Under no circumstances will I fly any airline based in the ME, be it Emirates, Qatar, Etihad, Sauda, Air Egypt or any of the others. It is worth the extra time or expense to have nothing to do with any of these, and I most certainly do not want to spend any of the time on the ground in transit in any of these countries.
