A shocking event in Malaysia has highlighted the vulnerabilities faced by foreign maids.

**A domestic worker named Mini Bhargavan** was lured with legitimate employment in Malaysia, but upon arrival, she was placed under a **tourist visa**, as part of a trafficking scheme involving multiple female victims.

While serving as a domestic helper, Bhargavan suffered a fire incident and remained in a **coma for over two months**. Tragically, her employer did not notify her relatives or the embassy.

The truth surfaced only when her son contacted the **Indian expatriate help group**, which led to a formal investigation.

The Indian Embassy in Malaysia has since intervened, ordering the household to cover the full cost of her medical evacuation. Bhargavan is set to be **transported by air for treatment**, making her the **first Malayali domestic worker to be medically repatriated by air ambulance**.
