The body of a female migrant worker Manjuara, whose family could not contact her for several months, was sent back to Bangladesh from Saudi Arabia on September 3.
All Manjuara’s family got to know from a phone call from another Bangladeshi immigrant that she fell sick, fought for her life and later died in a hospital. However, when the body arrived in a coffin, they noticed that few of her teeth were broken and there was a gash in her lips.
Manjuara went to Saudi Arabia in 2018. She used to call her family from her employer’s house and asked them to bring her back to Bangladesh, Manjuara’s nephew Mahfuz Rana told Dhaka Tribune.
