    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) On 15th February, 2012, Ms. Tashrifa Mohamed Said was taken to the Kenya Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, by the police, who informed the Embassy staff that they had found her in the streets of Riyadh. She was critically ill, very weak, dehydrated and suffering from what looked like a mental disorder. The medical report which the police presented when they brought her to the Mission indicated that they had taken her to a mental hospital in Riyadh, where she received treatment and was discharged the same day. Attempts by the Mission staff to get her side of the story were fruitless, since she spoke in whispers and was incoherent. In light of her condition on 18th February, 2012, the Embassy took her back to the same mental hospital for further assessment. Unfortunately, the hospital does not, as a policy, admit foreigners as inpatients and so, Ms. Said was treated as an outpatient through examination and medication and taken back to the Embassy by the mission staff. Ms. Tashrifa’s condition deteriorated as she was neither eating nor drinking. On 25th February, 2012, the mission took her to the general hospital in Shimez, but the latter referred her back to the mental hospital. The mental hospital, in turn, recommended that she gets medical attention due to her weakened state, as she could not even walk. The mission took her back to the same general hospital for medical attention, but she was turned away due to the fact that she was a runaway worker and they could not treat her without various details from her employer."
