According to Today.ng, the court sentenced the women in absentia.
Each faces suspended sentences of 15 months in jail and fines of 165,000 euros (184,350 dollars).
The women, the widow of a sheikh and seven of her daughters – were found guilty of human trafficking andtreating the workers in a “degrading way” during a 2007 to 2008 stay in a Brussels luxury hotel.
However, the judges threw out charges of inhumane treatment and noted that no violations of Belgian labour law could be found, since the members of the UAE royalty were not the direct employers of the workers.
