Ethiopian MWDW slain in Jarju3, Nabatieh

In less than two weeks after the suicide of a migrant woman domestic worker in Tripoli, another foreign worker, from the Ethiopian nationality, was found dead in the southern town of Jarju3, Nabatiyeh. According to the preliminary investigation, the woman is said to have attempted suicide by slaying herself inside the bathroom of her employer’s house but with clear marks of stabbing shown on her neck (!?). In this respect, and despite the repeated appeals to stop such painful incidents by civil society organizations fighting against human trafficking, the death of MWDWs remain common news reported lightly and briefly. No mention whatsoever of the motives behind the attempts or in-depth account of the incident is noted. (Al Mustaqbal, March 31, 2016)
