Ugandan domestic worker Selestine Musavakwa was sent to work in Saudi Arabia by Alsaiar Travel, Tourism and Recruitment in 2019. After her employer reportedly confiscated her passport and delayed her wages, Musavakwa was forced to work without pay and was physically and sexually abused by her employer. Musavakwa alleges her agency refused help, later placing her in another home where the abuse was "unrelenting" and then detained for breach of contract and confiscating her documentation.

Musavakwa's story is one of many; 18 other Ugandan women also ran away from Alsaiar's detention centre. She eventually returned to Kenya on receiving the airfare from a charitable source in February 2021.

Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Alsaiar Travel, Tours and Recruitment to respond to the allegations; they did not respond.
