The Human Resources Ministry will seek the prosecution of two high profile former employers of Indonesian domestic workers whose alleged employment practices reflected exploitation and forced labour.

Speaking to Malaysiakini, its minister M Saravanan said the two cases have been forwarded to the Attorney General’s Chamber (AGC) to seek prosecution.

Stating that the former employers were high profile, he described one to be a ‘Tan Sri’ in his 70s, and the other as a retired high-ranking police officer.
