美國東北部紐約州一對富有夫婦被控在家中奴役兩名印度尼西亞婦女達5年多之久，紐約州一名聯(lián)邦法官為這對夫婦設定超過300萬美元的保釋金。檢方說，瓦薩.薩貝那尼和她的丈夫在這兩名印尼婦女2002年來美國到他們家中做家務后，扣押了這兩名印尼婦女的簽證。檢察官說，薩貝那尼夫婦強迫兩名婦女長時間工作，很少讓她們睡覺和吃東西，禁止她們離開房屋，并進行身體虐待。據(jù)指稱，虐待包括毆打、用刀割傷，用熱水燙傷。

A federal judge in in the northeastern U.S. state of New York has set more than three million dollars in bail for a wealthy couple accused of enslaving two Indonesian women in their home for more than five years. Prosecutors say Varsha Mehander Sabhnani and her husband, Mahender, seized the women's visas after they arrived in the United States in 2002 to work in the home as domestics. They say the couple forced the women to work long hours with little sleep or food, barred them from leaving the house and physically abused them. Abuse allegedly included beatings, slashing with a knife, and scalding with hot water.

The Sabhnanis were arrested earlier this week after one of the women was spotted wandering on a street near the house, dressed only in pants and a towel.
