Polemic around slavery affair at the Concorde Opéra luxury hotel

An original translation by Michael Laudahn:

Paris Depeches:

Today, the CGT [Confédération Générale du Travail, trade union] has denounced pressure exercised against them at the Concorde Opéra luxury hotel, because they [CGT] aided an ethiopian hause maid working for a Arab Emirates’ family to flee from the room where she said was detained and maltreated.

‘Four union members were reprimanded by the hotel’s management, most of all blaming them for not having notified them immediately of this situation. But they did not do that immediately, fearing that they [management] would warn the [AE] family’, explains the CGT delegate for presige hotels, denouncing the recurring practice ‘of modern slavery in luxury hotels’ under a management who not always ‘feels the need to notify the authorities’.

Also, the CGT accuses the management to have blamed the union’s activists to have caused money loss for the hotel after this affair. Informed of this situation, the unionists have contacted associations and the police, which demanded the passport confiscated by the family to be handed over to the young woman.

Interrogated by the police, the young woman explained that she has never have been paid for her work and often having received beatings. Until her arrival at the hotel, she was not able to contact anybody as she was always locked up.

  1. Where there are Moslems there is slavery, that is a simple fact that way too many people ignore.
