Two weeks since she flew to the Middle East country, an OFW identified as Rosemarie Gandon was said have been physically assaulted by her employer in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Her cousin Ann Dawang, who is also a domestic worker in Jeddah, posted on Facebook about the situation of Rosemarie. She also posted photos of the OFW with bruises and swollen hands.
“Pinsan ko si Rosemarie Gandon. Sinasaktan siya ng amo niya. Two weeks palang siya sa Riyadh City,” Dawang said on Facebook.
She added that Rosemarie no longer opens her social media accounts making it difficult for them to know her real condition.
“Ilang araw na hindi nag open ng fb (Facebook), kasi kinuha na nila. Hindi na namin alam kung nasaan na siya ngayon,” she added.
Dawang said that Rosemarie’s family in South Cotabato is also worried about her situation.
They are seeking the help of Philippine officials in Saudi to help them find them find Rosemarie.
The OFW’s last facebook post was on July 27 saying that being an OFW is not easy.
