The Nottingham Post quoted police as saying the woman, whom it identified as Suhaida Mahiyudin, 37, used Facebook to recruit workers from Malaysia, exposing them to exploitation.

It said the order – the first in Nottingham and one of only 14 granted in England and Wales in the last year – will last for 10 years.

The report said the order against Suhaida, from the settlement of Toton in Nottinghamshire, was made by the Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Oct 12.

It said Suhaida was previously investigated for recruiting workers from Malaysia as nannies with a view to exploiting them.

Suhaida, it said, is bound by six conditions which, if breached, will result in a criminal prosecution.

The order prohibits her from facilitating international travel or accommodation for any person other than herself or members of her immediate family, unless she has written permission from Nottinghamshire police.

She also cannot reside at the same address as any other person other than her immediate family without seven days’ prior notification of the force’s chief constable.

Another condition states that she cannot be in possession or control of any official documentation belonging to a third party, including passports and bank cards.

The report quoted Det Insp Paul Lefford, from Nottinghamshire police’s dedicated Modern Slavery team, as saying the order came after eight months of police investigation.

“The court found that Suhaida had acted in a way that there is a risk of committing a slavery or trafficking offence and this order is necessary to protect the public,” he said.
