OFWs in distress: where to get help?

[badkuk]

Hi all,

Basically overheard an acquaintance talking over the phone with her sister. Long story short, the sister is stranded in Saudi -- passport is with the recruiter, and kung saan saan siya pinapalipat ng trabaho. she has already approached the PH embassy there but for some reason they refuse to help. No idea kung malinis ung papeles niya or not.

What other avenues can they explore? Thanks
