Madinah court orders SR 150,000 for abused maid
MADINAH: MARIAM AL-JIHANI
Sunday 5 May 2013
The general court in Madinah has concluded the case of the Indonesian maid, Keni Sharda, who was abused by her employer in 2008.
The court ordered the employer to compensate Keni with SR 150,000. Keni filed a complaint at her country's overseas workers union and the Saudi Embassy in Jakarta.
Keni was given a visa by the Saudi embassy in Jakarta to attend court sessions inside Saudi Arabia, said her lawyer, Abdul Rahman Al-Muhamadi.
He said that the court decision came following three years of sessions.
Keni testified that she was burned with an iron on different parts of her body and that household detergents were poured on her open injuries.
"The Saudi government treated Keni at Jeddah's best hospitals," he said.
