Lex Taliones, the law of equal reciprocity, states that punishment equivalent to the offense should be rendered. For every eye that one blinds, an equivalent eye should be taken from the offender. For recruiters who sell the poor unemployed to slavery, sex trade and other forms of abuse, equivalent harm should be rendered by the courts.
I therefore urge that agencies that knowingly and/or repeatedly send our workers in harm’s way be charged with crimes that are classified as heinous.
As for those who actually abuse our women, let Islamic law deal with them. Gather enough evidence and send them to Saudi courts.
