Saudi teen seeks asylum
11 Views • Jan 09, 2019
Description
Thai immigration officials initially planned to send her back to Kuwait where her family lives, but the teenager barricaded herself into her hotel room where she began to plead her case on social media.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has stepped in and escorted her from the hotel to a Thai government shelter to await a decision from Australia about possible refugee resettlement there.
