The workers escaped from further abuse of the employer and took shelter in a gurdwara in August last year, Minister of State for External Affairs E. Ahamed said in a written reply, adding 11 of them have since returned to India. The 18 workers had been recruited by a company 'JUJU Power Sdn Bhd' and had reached Malaysia in April last year, he said adding they were subsequently sub-contracted to another company 'PSEB Electronics Sdn Bhd'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
