Eleven Filipino fishermen are now temporarily housed at a charity hostel in the town of Kilkeel, Northern Ireland after escaping from their abusive employer's son, ABS-CBN Europe News Bureau reported Wednesday.
Bureau chief Danny Buenafe said Kilkeel, which is three hours from the capital of Belfast, is where the Filipinos fled after fleeing fishing vessel operator John Anderson.
The runaway fishermen complained of maltreatment and physical abuse against Anderson's drunkard son, Mark.
Three of the fishermen identified as Rando Oto, Basilio Castro and Joselito Alcain had already filed a complaint with the police for physical abuse against Mark, whom they said is also a drug user.
The three showed ABS-CBN red marks on their bodies -- signs that they were physically abused.
They also complained of non-compliance of their salary contract.
Aside from the three, the other runaway fishermen were named as Paul Aranda, Mario Yumol, Jonathan Lachica, Filomar Orquillano, Melvin Balvis, Rogelio Pichon, Rolando Pichon and Nicky Monacillo.
According to Philippine labor attaché Jainal Rasul, Super Manning Agency, the complainants' recruiter, is willing to shoulder the plane fares of the fishermen should they decide to return to the Philippines.
However, only seven wish to go home. The others said they would like to remain and want a new employer despite the expiration of their visas.
The fishermen are also demanding payment of their two-week salary covering the month of April, which would amount to the equivalent of P40,000 pesos each.
As of last report, police said they will soon arrest Anderson.
The fishermen, meanwhile, are being taken cared of by an Irish priest who was stationed in Subic, Zambales for 39 years.
