25/1/08
A Sri Lankan maid, in transit on her way home from Kuwait to see her children for the first time in three years, hanged herself in a toilet at Dubai airport, Emirati media reported yesterday. The report came just two days after Gulf states reached agreement with labor-sending Asian countries at a meeting in Abu Dhabi to join forces against the exploitation of migrant workers. Kala Sangarapillai, 30, from the Batticaloa district of eastern Sri Lanka took her own life three weeks ago, the Khaleej Times newspaper said, citing a forensics officer from Dubai police.
