Feb 26, 2016- Hundreds of foreign employment aspirants were affected on Thursday after foreign employment recruiting agencies, usually called manpower companies, shut their offices, making a bizarre claim that their offices were raided by police “without any prior information”.

The Nepal Association of Foreign Employment Agencies (Nafea), the umbrella organisation of recruiting agencies, has even warned that it would disrupt all foreign employment related services for an indefinite period “if police continued raids”.

The Metropolitan Police Crime Division on Wednesday raided 18 manpower companies on suspicion of duping foreign employment aspirants. A total of 12 persons were arrested. Eight have been remanded to 10-day custody while four have been sent to the Department of Labour for further investigation.

Nafea has claimed that more than 20 recruiting agencies operating in the Kathmandu Valley have been raided in the past few days “without prior information.
