On October 23, the girls’ mother Wafa’a received a phone call from an official at the Saudi Arabian consulate who ordered the entire family to return to their home country. It was in response to an application by the two sisters for political asylum in the United States.

Police have ruled out that the pair jumped from the George Washington Bridge in a suicide pact, a theory that was initially pushed out by police, because neither body had visible signs of trauma.

[Sloppy reporting. Just a few sentences earlier it stated the NYPD had not ruled anything out.]

It is not known how long they were dead before they were found but police struggled to identify them for days.

FWIW sounds like a family honor killing to me.

Wow , they jumped in the water but wanted to be certain they stayed together as they died, so they tried duct tape to stay united in death.

I am not an artist , but that police sketch does not look like their photos.

A Freeper posted about one of his kin, captured by the English refused to sign an oath not to fight; was hanged.
The rest of the group returned home.

Is FREEDOM, really just another word?
