"I am 19 years old and I am from Bangladesh. I have been here in Maldives for 5 years now. I was first brought here to work in a shop in Male'.

My boss promised to give me $230 but he only gave me $130 and I was not treated well during that time.
I struggled for many years under him and since he had my passport my freedom was literally in his hands.

My mother back home still waits for me every day and I keep telling her that I’ll come back soon. I have to lie to her because I don’t want her to worry about me.
My boss at the gaadiya takes care of me very well. She said that she will try to help me get my freedom even until her last breath."
