Trapped in Qatar

Anyone read this?
The guy and his family were pretty much prevented from leaving Qatar for two years because of his employers.

I can't believe FIFA gave them the world cup. This country practises a modern day slavery system where if you are a foreigner, you are restricted to your employers, basically you cannot leave without their say so. This all came about because they stopped paying him and when he took the legal routes, he found himself in such a situation.
