Silicon Valley's Online Slave Market - Full documentary - BBC News Arabic | BBC Africa Eye

arab women out there crying for their rights yet they themselves look at domestic workers as animaks, so sad

So after trafficking humans, the only penalty they get is a banned account? What a world we live in!

This employer law that an employee can't leave without employer consent is absolutely unacceptable on all accounts. How can this be allowed??? I'm concerned about what happens to these women in prison too. That's a whole other investigation.

Hats off to the cop who went out of his way to locate her family even if he didn't succeed. He cared enough to try.

The Activist needs to be careful. May God protect her so she can continue her much needed work. Nobel prize nomination is needed

Isn’t it insane that these are countries where the smallest amount of weed will get you years in prison but child trafficking is ‘a-okay!’

Thank you to everyone involved with exposing these crimes in Kuwait and for your work to help these people.

very thankful that BBC not only researches and makes these documentaries, but also takes a step further to reach out to governments, companies, families... It might not stop it all but even the smallest change saves lives. God bless you for this.

Ironic how a Cop is helping to find a trafficked person in one country and a cop owns a trafficked person on the other.

'How can you have a servant who keeps their own passport? The worst thing is that she gets a day off every week!' Like WTF on earth did I hear?

This is a great example that where there is evil there is also goodness. Much respect to those trying to help these girls and solve this problem.

About 25 years ago, I remember a friend’s child was kidnapped at Disney. A Kuwaiti couple had kidnapped the young girl to take her to their country to work for them. They drugged her, changed her clothes, dyed, and cut her hair. Disney closed down every entrance and exit. Thank God her parents had a recent photo of their daughter. Everyone working Security looked at the faces of every child going out of the park and she was retrieved. These people think they are better than everybody else. I’d never let anyone go to work in the Middle East. Who knows if you’d ever see them again!

"Sara, that's what we call her. I don't even know her real name." A lie, because he holds her passport. Just another way of demeaning her. So evil

Bravo to the Asian Lady who had been to Prison for nothing and she's out fighting for the safety of others.

As disgusting as the government is for not cracking down on those cases, even to the point that when video evidence is presented sellers aren’t prosecuted, i think the worst culprits are Silicon Valley themselves. they can spend billions to perfect advertising algorithms yet slave trade can happen freely on platforms like instagram and google. Absolutely detestable

This just makes me cry, these girls should be living the best years of their lives. Anyone involved in this should be put to work in the same way to learn compassion for their fellow man.

Let's quit candy coating this: It's slavery.

God bless that policeman who took time off work to try to find this girl's family and traveled for hours determined to make a break in the case.

We need more of this kind of reporting...journalism is used to expose evil. It was sickening to watch the inhumane treatment by those Kuwaiti employers

Just unbelievable thank you everyone needs to see this!!!!
