Asian maids in the Middle East

"An Asian housemaid has taken her female sponsor and her sisters to court claiming they physically attacked her and locked her in a room after she refused to help move heavy equipment out of exhaustion. The five women, all sisters, provided entertainment at weddings for a living and after the maid had served coffee and tea and prepared dinner at an event that continued from Monday night until dawn the next day, she refused to help move the equipment. The five women then reportedly attacked her and locked her in her room, but once they had gone to sleep she escaped out into the streets where she was found by a passer-by who took her to hospital."
