Secret filming by Al Jazeera uncovered shocking conditions at a carwash in Kent, southeast England, used by dealerships for the auto giants, Volvo and Kia.
Workers living in squalid containers at the carwash in Canterbury say they are paid $50 for 12-hour shifts, suffer verbal and physical abuse, and have wages withheld for causing minor damage.
Parosha Chandran, a leading human rights lawyer, said Al Jazeera's evidence "appears to show all the hallmarks of modern slavery," adding that she has "grave fears that these workers are victims of human trafficking".
