Distressed OFW found dead inside PH embassy-run shelter in Bahrain

A Filipina household service workers temporarily staying at the shelter run and manage by the Philippine embassy in Bahrain was found dead Wednesday, according to Filipino migrants right group.

Migrante-Middle East regional coordinator John Leonard Monterona identified the OFW as Kathleen Ann Viray Ilagan, 31 years old, from Davao.

Monterona said yesterday he received an electronic mail from a former staff of the Center for Overseas Workers (COW), a Davao-based non-government organization providing assistance to OFWs and families, asking assistance on behalf of the family of OFW Ilagan to look into her death.

OFW Ilagan left the country sometime July 2012 to work as pastry chef for a local company based in Bahrain.

She was deployed by the Manila-based agency named HRD Employment Consultant and Multi Services Inc. as shown on her deployment documents according to her family.

Earlier this month, according to her kin, she left her job and proceeded to the PH embassy as she sought repatriation. She was admitted to stay at the PH embassy’s shelter while attending on her case and repatriation.

Per report his family received yesterday, OFW Ilagan apparently committed suicide, which the family could not believe saying that she ‘had no serious problems that will lead her to end even her own life.’

‘All that she wanted is to go home,’ a kin of OFW Ilagan was quoted as saying.

“We are calling the Department of Justice (DoJ) in coordination with Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) to probe the alleged suicide of OFW Ilagan. This should not easily be declared as suicide without conducting thorough investigation,” Monterona averred.

Monterona added the DoJ should consider sending investigators from the National Bureau of Investigation to conduct an independent probe given that the incident (death of OFW Ilagan) happened inside the PH embassy-run shelter.

Monterona said her case maybe a ‘mysterious’ death. ‘What is puzzling us is that it happened inside the PH embassy-run shelter,’ the OFW leader lamented.

“The family of OFW Ilagan in Davao is seeking justice and we will join and actively campaign for it,”Monterona declared.

“The PNoy administration could not even ensure our OFWs protection on-site, and unfortunately, even inside and at the premises of PH diplomatic buildings and shelters,”Monterona lamented.

According to Monterona, a yearly average of 8 to 10 cases of mysterious deaths involving OFWs from the Middle East have been monitored by his group since 2008 until 2012.
