An eighteen year-old Saudi teenager, Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun, who was reported to have run
away from her family while they were on a trip to Kuwait three days ago, had
been given assurance of protection stay by Thailand authority.
Daily Mail
(UK) reports that the teenager left her family in Thailand in the hope of
reaching Australia to seek asylum from her 'abusive parents.'
Legit.ng
gathers that Al-Qunun had gone into hiding following her insistence not to
board a flight back to her country, fearing that her parents would kill her for
travelling without a male guardian and dropping her former faith.
Earlier,
after rejecting the move to fly back, she has resulted to posting a clip on
Twitter of her barricading her hotel door with a table, mattresses and a chair.
Rahaf, who
fears retaliation from her family after dropping Islam, said she was still in
panic that her father, who has landed in Thailand will kill her, a move which
made the Thai authority say 'we will not send anyone to die.'
