Malawian WhatsApp group saves 50 trafficked women from slave-like conditions in Oman.
Malawian social media activist Pililani Mombe Nyoni's WhatsApp group saved over 50 women who were trafficked to Oman to work in slave-like conditions. The women, recruited for domestic work in the Middle East, faced sexual abuse, physical abuse, and had their passports confiscated. Sharing their distressing experiences in the group, the women received help from human trafficking charities and the Malawian government, which launched an Oman rescue campaign in response to the widespread issue of human trafficking.
