Dubai Migrant Workers

The laborers in the Al Sajaa camp started returning home this week to India, Pakistan and elsewhere with tickets purchased by UAE authorities from the company's deposits. For more than six months, the nearly 700 south Asian workers have lived off charity, fought off rats and slept amid festering piles of trash after the construction company that brought them to the United Arab Emirates abruptly closed and its owner fled town.
