Migration Alliance is in receipt of the following information from a victim of Abel Prasad. The victim would like her name to remain anonymous. The details of this story have been provided to the relevant authorities:
"I just wanted to share my experience with Abel Prasad in case it can be used as evidence against him… my experience wasn’t migration though but I figure every piece of evidence against this pathological liar would help?
I was employed by Abel Prasad around six years ago when he started a company called Ivy Envy Marketing. Originally he ‘employed’ myself and a number of other young women to work as interns for his business. At the time I was young and naive.
