Saudi Girl Overturns Car to Foil Kidnap Bid
Emirates 24/7 ^ | Tuesday, August 26, 2014

Crowds gathering around the overturned car used to kidnap two girls in Saudi Arabia.

A 23-year-old Saudi girl, apparently influenced by action movies, succeeded in aborting an attempt by two men to kidnap her and her handicapped sister when she abruptly pulled the hand brake, causing the captors’ car to overturn.

The girl and her 20-year-old sister were walking to their home in the southern Jazan province when they were intercepted by the two men, who forced them into their car.

“On the way out of town, the elder sister jumped to the hand brake and pulled it up forcefully…the car, which was going at high speed, suddenly veered off the road and overturned,” the Arabic language daily newspaper ‘Ajel’ said.

It said passers-by managed to pull the four out of the car before calling the police, adding that one of the captors was arrested while the other fled.

They’ll probably let the kidnapers off with a slap on the wrist, and stone the girls...

She’ll be dead in a week as she disgraced her religion and the males in her family. I see an honor killing in the future.

I suspect that their family will rally around them; after all, they were apparently modern enough to let their daughters go out without a male escort.

They didn’t have a male relative escort with them, they will be stoned soon...

That's just the Muslim version of 'Speed Dating'.
