Disgraceful
News about the poor people who work in our homes being tortured is not anything new. We witness many incidents in our country that are almost monstrous. People are killing people for no reason. We see dishonesty and crime all over Bangladesh. It was not like this even 10 years ago. People are getting ruthless and selfish.
Torturing maidservants is one the most popular(!) pastimes for some people. Our maidservants depend on us and in a way we are dependent on them. That does not mean we will give them ill-treatment. Beating and torturing our maidservants is a heinous crime and we should be ashamed of ourselves. Are we still living in the medieval age?
