Filipino Held In Saudi Jail for Overstay

[IanB]

Mae's family just heard that their aunt may be in prison in Saudi arabia. A message was passed to them by a recently released filipino. apart from that they have not heard from her for many weeks. It would seem she is in jail for overstaying her visa. Obviously the family are upset and want to know what to do.

I have suggested contacting the Philippine Embassy in Riyadh and have given them phone numbers and email address. Anyone else got any ideas? Any idea what the sentence might be?

Thanks for any help.

Isn't life lovely?

Might just be in prison but i am aware of cases wherein arrangements can be made between 2 countries (ksa and phils) re expatriation...

it would be better if they will coordinate with the phil. embassy there in saudi and phil. embassy here..

Goodluck Ian, pls tell Mae to be strong for her family and relatives everything happened for a reason..

GOD Bless..
