I'm sure others have reported on this, I'll add english sources if you find them.
It was one thing when this shit was going on in Beijing, but now it's happening in plain sight in Europe; the EU better step in and do something about this.
nothing will happen, nobody cares about poor workers(especially migrant ones), brazil is treating workers like crap too, and no one gives a shit, russia will still host 2018 world cup, qatar will still host 2022 world cup as well, despite treating migrant workers like slaves, money talks.
Reminds me of the workers in Dubai, foreigners (many of them westerners) worked like slaves, unpaid, then fired without warning, and with no money to get back home.
So if you work for the Russian Olympics you literally get fucked with a metal rod?

Apparently yes.
I'm not defending anyone, but who's the source? Just this guy or someone more official?

In the article in the OP a team of Swedish journalists have traveled to Russia and investigated the workers' conditions.
The Olympics is a complete joke from a human rights standpoint. Nobody gives a shit, it's all a business now.
[QUOTE]Martiros Demerchyan says he was detained and sexually assaulted with a crow-bar[/QUOTE]
Err.
This is the same treatment Indian and Filipino workers get in Dubai
It's bad in Dubai, but not that bad. Treated like shit, yes; sexually assaulted with a crow-bar? No.
Who sexually assaults someone with a fucking [I]crowbar?[/I]
