An Omani woman has been reported to Public Prosecution after she registered then closed dozens of companies just to obtain visa clearances for expat workers.
Out of 37 registered then deleted companies, the citizen brought in 231 expat workers and did not hire a single Omani, according to the Ministry of Manpower.
The woman worked around the law in order to bring expat workers into Oman even though there was no work for them to do.
This left the workers vulnerable to exploitation as well as human trafficking.
