Reports have emerged of nearly 350 Sri Lankans employed at an apparel factory in the Sahabi area in Jordan facing dire conditions, due to the non-payment of salaries.
According to the affected group, the management of the factory has not paid salaries over the last 18 months.
They claim that this has resulted in the Sri Lankans being stuck in their hostels without food and water, and with some falling severely ill.
Making their plight known via a video message, the affected Sri Lankans further said that even though the Sri Lankan Embassy in Jordan has been informed of their situation, no probe or action has been taken in this regard yet.
They have requested the Sri Lankan authorities to repatriate them before the situation results in the loss of lives. (NewsWire)
