What are the right authorities to report the case to ?

kerenifaith

Peace be upon you all .I have been working here in Saudi Arabia as a maid for two years and 10 months . First two years I worked in a different household.After I finished my contract and was set to go back home my former employer offered to recommend me to a relative since I still was planning to come back and work after my vacation.We made an agreement of payment and j believed he had made an agreement to my to be new employer about everything.When I came back after my vacation I was welcomed to this new home but I could feel my new employer wasn't so pleased with me.For the last ten months we have had issues.gast forward to the day before yesterday I asked for a raise in my salary to be able to buy my necessities or instead for her to buy them for me and not give me raise this turned out to be a huge quarrel that led to her locking the entire house except the kitchen.This shocked me because she has never acted like this before so yesterday I just stayed in my room and didn't go to the main house because to be honest am worried for my safety for I don't know what is her plan.Have asked for me to go back home but she has refused to let me go back and she is asking me to pay her back the amount of money she bought me from my former employer.This part of her buying me  I didn't know about it for my former employer offered me this opportunity to work for the relative as a recommendation and not him selling me to her.Kindly I need advice on what are the right authorities to report the case to.

@kerenifaith While I can't be of much help, I wish you a lot of strength. We had a nanny in the UAE who had very unpleasant experiences working in the Kingdom. Usually consular help should be available (your country's embassy). That would be my first point of contact in case of problems.
