The Liberian girls were taken to Lebanon at different intervals with the promise that they would be given jobs and allowed to go to school in Lebanon.

Contrary to the promise of the Lebanese nationals who facilitated their travel to Lebanon, the girls were given abnormal jobs and subjected to inhumane treatment.

A source told this paper that when some of the girls got sick in Lebanon they were never taken to the hospital; instead they were only given pills or sometimes left along.

Our source alleged that some of the girls were assaulted and sexually abused.
