They will not be there for long. Nearly all will soon be packed off home, joining an exodus that has seen perhaps one in ten of Saudi Arabia’s estimated 9m foreign workers leave the kingdom in little more than a year.

RAPE AND SODOMIZATION TO BREAK DISSIDENTS/OPPOSITION LEADERS
In Ethiopia where torture is routine and brutal, where dozens have been disappeared, hundreds killed, thousands deprived of their land and subjected to forced resettlement and where the rule of law is dead and buried, the repressive regime has added new brutal actions to break up and incapacitate opposition figures. These methods involve raping of women political leaders and sodomization of arrested men and threat of public exposure of the photos and films.
