On December 28, 2020, the woman was sent back to Bangladesh with the condition of not filing any complaint against them and before that in November they recruited her father in her  place. Since she filed the complaint her father is being threatened by the perpetrators now, she said. According to her more than 600 Bangladeshi women work in that factory where Shah Alam, Furkan, Siddique, Aslam forcefully engage them in prostitution and the owner Anil Kohli oppresses them. After the news was broadcast in Bangladeshi and Mauritius news media the culprits are trying to convince her to solve the matter outside the court through different ways.

Head of the BRAC Migration program Shariful Hasan said the description the victim gave was grim. Sexually oppressing and engaging in forceful prostitution in the name of recruitment in a foreign country falls under human trafficking, he said. The Government of Mauritius and Bangladesh should jointly investigate the matter, if any other Bangladeshi immigrant worker is being oppressed like this, said Shariful Hasan.
