“Young men voice grievances against forced labour in Iran after being promised job in Dubai”
…Allegations have arisen, claiming that young men who were initially offered employment in Dubai were transported to Iran and subjected to forced labor. The complaint specifically targets two agents, one hailing from Nilambur in Malappuram and the other from Mayiladumpara in Pathanamthitta. According to the complaint, the agents extorted a sum of Rs 3.3 lakh from the young individuals. These agents had initially enticed the youths with the prospect of securing employment on a Dubai-based ship…
… the youths managed to contact their family members through the help of acquaintances in Iran. Upon being informed, the relatives contacted the agents, resulting in the youths finally being assigned jobs on small ships…
The youth who worked for 9 months on the old ship without any safety systems, were not even paid any salary. Those who managed to secure the necessary documentation to return to their country promptly did so. They then lodged a formal complaint with the district police chief with the assistance of their family members. Simultaneously, the relatives of those still stranded in Iran appealed to the government for intervention to help their safe return.
