Police: No signs of assault on Saudi sisters & # 039; Deaths in New York
Two immigrant sisters from Saudi Arabia Investigators said Friday that bodies washed on the New York City waterfront, tied with tape, had told people they preferred to harm themselves rather than return to their country of origin.
The bodies of Tala Farea, 16, and Rotana Farea, 23, were discovered on October 24 near the Hudson River, two months after they were reported missing in Fairfax, Virginia, where they had been living in a shelter in the middle of the allegations that they were abused at home.
Police said the sisters had been in Manhattan since Sept. 1, staying in expensive hotels and ordering in pairs of meals until the credit card they were using was at maximum. One runner said he saw them praying in a playground near the river, sitting at a distance of about 30 meters with their heads in their hands, hours before their bodies were found, police said.
New York City Police Detective Chief Dermot Shea said people who knew the Farea sisters in Virginia told investigators they made statements in the past year that they "would rather harm themselves. , to commit suicide, to return to Saudi Arabia. "
Shea did not say that the sisters had committed suicide, but said the police "have no credible information that any crime has been committed." The medical examiner has yet to decide on his death and the case is still under investigation, he said.
The bodies of the sisters were glued with adhesive tape, facing each other and fully dressed, police said. There were no obvious signs of trauma and it appeared they were alive when they entered the water, police said.
The mysterious deaths of the Farea sisters have attracted worldwide attention and fueled unbridled speculation and online conspiracy theories following the October 2 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at a Saudi embassy in Turkey.
The sisters' mother told detectives that the day before the bodies were discovered, she received a call from an official at the Saudi Embassy, ordering the family to leave the United States because her daughters had requested asylum. .
The Embassy of Saudi Arabia has refused to talk to the family about any asylum application.
Tala and Rotana moved to the USA. UU From Saudi Arabia with his mother in 2015, settling in Fairfax, a suburb of Washington DC, police said.
The sisters left their family home and were placed in a place similar to a shelter after a previous disappearance, in December 2017. At that time, Shea said: "It was stated that they were abused."
Rotana enrolled at George Mason University in Fairfax, but left in the spring.
The sisters were last seen in Virginia on August 24. It was reported that they disappeared on September 12.
Police, citing credit card records, a Uber receipt and other evidence, said they arrived in New York City on September 1 after making stops in Washington, DC and Philadelphia.
They appeared in good health in a police security video located about a week before their bodies were found, Shea said.
Police initially had trouble identifying the bodies, as much of the city and country were paralyzed by other news, such as the bomb packet sent to a dozen prominent Democrats and the CNN office in New York City. York
The police published sketches of the sister's faces and published repeated calls for help from the public to identify them on social networks. Once they were identified, the police sent detectives to Virginia to reconstruct the last months of their lives.
The runner who said he saw the sisters prayed went to the police on Wednesday. He told the detectives that he had been "tormenting him," Shea said.
