A Melbourne doctor and his wife allegedly kept an Iranian asylum seeker as a slave for two years to work at their confectionery store.
Seyyed Abdolzadeh Farshchi, 46, and Naghmeh Mostafaei, 45, are both charged with causing another person to engage in forced labour and conducting business with forced labour between 2015 and 2017. Their alleged victim told Melbourne Magistrates Court on Monday he worked 14-hour days, seven days a week for the doctor at the latter's confectionery shop in the city's southeast.During Persian New Year and Ramadan, he said he worked longer hours and once remained at the store for nearly three days.He arrived in Australia by boat in 2013 with his wife and daughter, and was detained on Christmas Island and then Darwin, before moving to Melbourne.
Farshchi and Mostafaei are expected back in court on Tuesday as part of a two-week committal hearing, to determine if they will stand trial.
I wonder what ethnicity Seyyed Abdolzadeh Farshchi and Naghmeh Mostafaei are? 🤔 So glad Whites ended slavery in the West 100s of years ago. It still seems to be rampant in other cultures.
WTF this cannot happen in real life
Let the victim stay and deport the offenders.
Lock them up for two years
