GEFONT provides Rita Rana Magar Rs. 130,000 as compensation.

The General Federation of Nepalese Trade Unions (GEFONT) has awarded Rs. 130,000 as compensation to Rita Rana Magar of Airawati Rural Municipality-7, Pyuthan from the agent who scammed her in the matter of foreign employment.

The local agent Om Prakash Singh had taken the victim to Kuwait on a visit visa 2 months prior by exploiting the greed of free visa and free ticket.

She filed a complaint against the agent after the agent demanded a large sum of money to return the victim, who fell ill after regular 18-hour work as a domestic worker, to Nepal.

Janak B.K. from GEFONT Migrant Desk has informed Shramik Khabar that an amount equal to 1 month's salary and flight ticket has been provided at the initiative of GEFONT.
