00:00A female overseas Filipino worker in Saudi Arabia was helped by GMA Integrated News by her employer's daughter.
00:15Always first in the news, J.P. Soriano Exclusive.
00:19This is the first time I see her. I remember everything.
00:32The OFW was emotional that we hid her name, Rose, while she was returning the abuse she suffered from her employer's daughter.
00:42It was February this year when Rose worked as a domestic helper in Saudi Arabia.
00:47But in May, while on a business trip, her employer's wife, who is also a Saudi national,
00:53abused the son of her employer's daughter.
00:57She used up all my strength because I fought. I fought her.
01:04She did the things she did to me.
01:10Then I took a bath there.
01:14I hid there for a month because I was afraid of her daughter.
01:20Rose was not able to speak up because she was afraid of being threatened by her victim.
01:27I told her, if she wants to kill me, she can kill me here in Saudi Arabia.
01:33She can kill me.
01:36When it came to July, she experienced abuse from her employer's son.
01:42But while I was shopping for her clothes, she took a picture of me.
01:47She took a picture of the part of my body that could be seen.
01:51The OFW asked Rose's agency in the Philippines.
01:55The agency said that she should wait for two to three months before taking her there.
02:01But after more than four months, the agency did not return her.
02:06This is where Rose decided to confront her employers, the government.
02:11But instead of helping, her employers took away her passport and bed or residence permit.
02:18Because her agency still won't let her go home,
02:22Rose approached the GMA Integrated News to get a call.
02:27I can't take it anymore.
02:29I have a lot on my mind. I'm here.
02:33I want to go home.
02:36We immediately brought the case of Rose to the Department of Migrant Workers.
02:40They immediately took action.
02:42Rose was rescued and brought to the police station.
02:46Thank you very much for your help, sir.
02:48I was able to get to my employer's house.
02:51I was able to get to the police station.
02:54I'm safe here. I hope all of this will be successful.
02:58Thank you so much.
03:00DMW Secretary Hans Leo Kakdak also promised
03:03that the case of the Philippine abuser will be given justice.
03:07This is the first news.
