Filipina Domestic Helper in Saudi Arabia Escapes Her Employer By Jumping From The Rooftop Of Their House

A Filipina domestic helper in Saudi Arabia jumped from the rooftop of her employer’s house because of fear towards her safety.

A video posted on Facebook shows a woman, with wounds on her face and barely talking, as she lies in the hospital bed.

According to her, she jumped off the rooftop of her employer’s house because she was constantly threatened by her employer. They are very strict on her that she cannot even use her mobile phone.

In the video, the woman can be seen without wounds in her face caused by the fall. She is now being treated at Al Rass General Hospital.

The woman was identified as Ma. Leonora Salebojar, a resident of Cavite, Philippines. She does not know her exact address in Saudi Arabia.

Other reasons towards her attempt to escape her abusive employer remain unknown. What she’s eagerly asking now is help from the Philippine government and other personalities so she can safely return to the Philippines.

Just this year, there’s a huge rise in the number of maltreated domestic helper in Saudi Arabia. Despite the horror stories we are told once in a while, there are still a huge number of Filipinos going to this oil-rich country to seek a greener pasture for their family in the Philippines
