Nepali Woman Returns Home After 22 Months in UAE Facing Exploitation and Fraud

Dubai. Ramita Ramtel of Kavrepalanchok, who went to the UAE 22 months ago for foreign employment, has finally returned home after falling victim to numerous hardships and fraud. 

Ramita, who went to Dubai as a domestic worker, had to flee from her house due to unbearable mental torture from the house owner. However, a painful fact has emerged that after fleeing from the house and reaching the streets, fake organizations defrauded her under the pretext of helping her.

After fleeing from home, Ramita, who spent three days on the streets under the open sky, was contacted by some individuals who claimed to be representatives of the Non-Resident Nepali Association (NRNA). They extorted 140,000 Nepali rupees from Ramita's family by assuring her of repatriation and legal processing. 

The individuals who defrauded by posing as fake NRNAs kept Ramita in limbo for about 19 months, informed Manoj Gorkhali, central vice-president of NRNA. The fraudsters repeatedly took Ramita to the airport with fake tickets and documents, causing her further mental stress.  

During that period, she was in a state of neither here nor there. Ramita, who fell into the trap of a fake organization for 18 months, finally came into contact with the real Non-Resident Nepali Association (UAE).

After coming into contact with the real association, NRNA UAE became active and completed all her legal and documentation processes within just 11 days. According to Vice-President Manoj Gorkhali, NRNA UAE President Bhim Mall Thakuri, Secretary Sabin Yonjan, Member Vijay Shrestha, and General Secretary of Sindhupalchok Tamang Society Ram Tamang played a special role in safely repatriating Ramita to Nepal.
