British Scientist Trafficked Tanzanian Into Britain And Kept Her As A Slave'

 Rebecca Balira, A scientist  at one of the world's leading medical research institutions smuggled a young woman 21-year-old Methodia  from Africa to work in the UK as her house slave
Rebecca forced 21-year-old Methodia Mathias to cook, clean and wash for her while acting as nanny to her three children for six months without pay, jurors heard.
The young Tanzanian was made to get up at 5am and often did not get to bed until 11.30 or midnight, the jury heard. She was made to share a bed with Balira's 12-year-old son, stripped of her passport and banned from contacting her family or friends, it was said.
She was forced to walk to and from church each Sunday while Balira and her children took the bus, Southwark Crown Court heard.
Jurors were also told Ms Mathias was slapped and punched by Balira and had her bra cut off her with a pair of scissors after her employer flew into a rage over a money box.
Her six-month ordeal only ended when Ms Mathias told the 'one friend she had in this country' about her mistreatment and the police were called in to investigate.

Haha! I thot the days of slavery was long gone...
i hope she rots in prison..(God forgive me)
When you think of slavery you may think of cotton pickers in Georgia, in the southern states of America, or the slave trade in Africa, or the sex slave trade in this jurisdiction, but what we are dealing with is Mrs Balira keeping Ms Mathias as a young woman who was effectively bound to her with no freedom of movement and no freedom of choice.
