A court in Dubai has sentenced 38 Indian construction workers to six months in prison, and deportation after that, for their part in the workers protest which demanded for higher wages and better living condition. Since the workers have been in prison for over four months, they are expected to be released and deported on March 18th.

“Some Indian workers are paid as little as $160 a month for a six or seven-day week,” she says, “whereas the average national is paid seven times as much.”
