Constantino Rodrigues, Desmond D'Souza, Purna Bahadur, Pelli Chelliah, Dinesh Kumar, Amar Malinga: injured or killed in Iraq. Recorded in any statistics, no one knows the invisible victims of war. Most of them are illegal there because their home countries prohibit travel to Iraq, and in no way assures housed in inhumane accommodations they earn an average of 400 dollars a month.
On 30 August 2004 insurgents beheaded on camera twelve guest workers from Nepal. "We have put to death because they have come here to help Jews and Christians in their war against Islam," said one of the masked executioners. A week later six Pakistani truck drivers were executed. The families received $ 2,000 as compensation. And so the system works: An Indian example, paid an unscrupulous "employment agency" in Mumbai about 3,000 dollars for a job in the Gulf States, is definitely not in Iraq. Illegally, he is then brought to Dubai or Kuwait, where to Arab companies such as Prime Projects "or" First Kuwaiti Construction resold.
These companies are subcontractors of Kellogg, Brown and Root (KBR). The KBR, a Halliburton subsidiary, is the Pentagon instructed the infrastructure repair in the garrisons to hold. The Indians will now be given the choice to work either in Iraq or deported back to his home to be. The film follows the stories of two Indians from Salcete, Goa. The 19 year old Desmond D'Souza was in the Navy Base Al Asadrquote mentally ill. He was summarily deported to his homeland . was without compensation.
The 39 year-old Constantino Rodrigues by a rocket attack by insurgents wounded. He lost a leg and an eye. The television crew was there as he was rushed to a hospital in Baghdad. This kind of public is easier for him to be a little destiny.
