HAFR AL-BATEN: A 30-year-old Nepalese maid reportedly hanged herself on Friday, the daily Al-Jazirah reported on Saturday.

Police believe the maid sequestered herself in her room on Thursday night and shortly after committed suicide. The lady of the house found the body. The motive for the suicide, police believe, is that the woman was suffering psychological duress and had recently refused to work.

these poor people are being so much oppressed by their saudi employers that they have no option other than to kill them. Absolutely painful. May her soul rest in peace.

I disagree with RK. Please do not generalize the situation. I personally know tens of Saudi families who are like parents to their maids and their maids enjoy the work and they are like part of family of their Saudi employers. Apart from regular salary, these maids are getting huge benefits everytime they visit theit home country. Just ask these maids also to complete the story.
