Malagasy maids mistreated in Lebanon

""Saya died there in June 2009. A photo taken before she set off shows a serious fresh-faced high-school leaver of 19. A second photo, shows the same face swollen, bruised and burned beyond recognition. "They say it was suicide, that she fell from the sixth floor of the building. We don't believe that story," said Elsa, Saya's aunt, holding a photo in each hand."" (thanks "Ibn Rushd")
