http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-13860097Indonesian MPs have called for a ban on workers being sent to the Middle East, after Saudi Arabia executed a maid without informing Jakarta.
Indonesia has recalled its ambassador to Riyadh to express its anger.
A crowd of protesters gathered outside the Saudi embassy in Jakarta displaying banners and T-shirts in support of the executed worker.
The maid, Ruyati binti Sapubi, was beheaded with a sword on Saturday after confessing to murdering her boss

Well if she did indeed murder her boss with a meat cleaver I dont see her punishment as OTT. Your murder you deserve to be killed back.
Also
Islamic law, male saudi victim, suspect a female unmarried foreigner.
Chances of a fair trial should approach zero quite fast.
The "boss" was a female.
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/indonesia-p...085636861.htmlThe woman, Ruyati binti Sapubi, was found guilty of murdering Saudi woman Khairiya bint Hamid Mijlid by striking her repeatedly on the head with a meat cleaver and stabbing her in the neck.
Also from the same report
The migrant worker had been subjected to constant verbal abuse and refused permission to leave the kingdom, according to Indonesia's National Agency for Placement and Protection of Migrant Workers.
Not of thats their punishment for murder? if she commited murder in the USA and was disposed of by lehtal injection whats the difference she is a murderer.
Look at the reasoning behind her commiting murder... VERBAL ABUSE? LOL how many people face that on a regular basis. She could have quit she could have not gone there in the first place. He being a murderer cant be the fault of Saudi Arabia no matter how much people want to bash that nation (usualy deservedly might i add).
She took a meat cleaver and ended another persons life .. **** the sympathy for her brutal actions.
after confessing to murdering her boss
you can disagree with death-penalty, or how its done, but it was murder so the penalty was lets say legitimate
I'm not so sure, I think that they have to hand over their passports to their employers some times.
Some people that I know that have Indonesian maids at home are also in possession of their passports. Of course, nobody sane would refuse to return it to them if they asked for it back, but shit happens...
