A Filipino woman who was hired by an Australian couple to clean and care for their family says she was kept like a slave in that she was forced to work in the pair’s grocery shop and had restrictions placed on where she was allowed to go. And when she managed to escape from their southern Sydney home, the husband and wife hired a private detective to track her down and bring her back. DOMINIC LORRIMER/Sydney Morning Herald Joshua McAleer sought the assistance of a private investigator in finding the woman days after she had left the home.
