A video of the alleged victim with ropes tied around his legs was shared on social media by employees as well as labour activists. RAMCO’s director, Saad, vehemently denies any allegations of torture. He told Al Jazeera that the worker in question had been offered treatment at a number of hospitals, and that doctors had advised he be returned to Bangladesh. Pending his repatriation, Saad said the company had placed the worker in a specialised “medical isolation room” for one night before releasing him to the care of his fellow workers. Mamun said that the Bangladeshi embassy had investigated the allegations and interviewed the man and found no signs of abuse. An advisor to Lebanon’s labour minister told Al Jazeera the ministry is also investigating the RAMCO case.
