A contest in Bahrain where the winning prize is an Ethiopian maid...

Bahrainis expressed their anger after an ad had been published in newspapers calling to participate in a contest that would be organized during the month of Ramadan with an “Ethiopian housemaid” as the prize.

The contest had only one condition: the winner must have a work permit for the housemaid.

The entity that put out the ad was a housemaid recruitment agency.

Authorities acted immediately to penalize the agency and suspended its license until the result of an investigation is out.

Authorities have also filed a case of human trafficking against the agency’s owner and management. Source...
