A Filipina domestic helper was found dead in her employer’s house in Saudi Arabia last week.
The victim, who identified as Norkisah Lymanh, 26, died due to stab wounds to her chest and her bloodied body was found in the kitchen of her employer’s house at Al Hazm disctrict.
According to the statement issued by Dirab Police Station, the cause of Lymanh’s death was “self-murder through suicide.”
However, the friends and relatives of the victim was not convinced by the findings of the Riyadh Police and they believe that there’s a foul play happened.
Facebook user Firewood Fairudz Fernandez, a friend of Lymanh said that the domestic helper wanted to go back home before, but she complained that her employer didn’t allow her to resign from her job as their maid even her contract was about to end.
To prove her claims, Fernandez posted the copy of the flight schedule of Lymanh on May 13-14 to Ninoy Aquino International Airport.
The friend of Lymanh accused the employer of the domestic helper of trying to cover the crime that they committed.
“Nagagawa pang mag sinungaling ang mga walang puso nyang amo at pagtakpan ang sarili nila!! dahil kwento nila Umalis lang daw sila saglit pero pagbalik nila bangkay na daw si norkisah ! Sabi naman ng Uncle nyang nandito sa pinas, For the last time na nagka usap sila Sinabi pamangkin nya magpapalam na na Uuwe Ito pero nagalit at di daw sya pinayagan kaya sila nag away!!” Fernandez said in her Facebook post.
Fernandez narrated said that Lymanh already told her relatives in the Philippines about the abuses that she experienced from her employer.
“Mahigpit sa Cell phone ang mga amo nya, Ni Minsan na nga lang sya makatawag kapag Magpapadala lang ito , at Kapag kausap nya ang pamilya nito’y Panandalian lamang, mabilis nilang kinukuha ang Cellphone!!! Nag tiis at nagtyaga sya sa mga walang Hiya at mga walang puso nyang mga amo, Pagtapos Ganon lang ginawa nila!!!”
The angry friend of the domestic helper said that it impossible that Lymanh killed herself because she even stopped her studies just to work abroad and fulfill her dreams to give her family a comfortable life.
“Pumatay sila ng Inosenteng tao! Kilala ko si Norkisa, Dahil Isa sya sa mga Mabubuti kong kaibigan, Mabait at masipag sya, Nakipagsapalaran Sya para lang matulugan ang mga magulang o mga mahal nya sa buhay na Maka Ahon sa kahirapan!
