Filipino boy raped by Yemeni in Saudi

A Yemeni man raped a 12-year-old Filipino in Saudi Arabia and tried to flee to his country but was caught just before crossing the border.

Saudi police had mounted a massive manhunt for the Yemeni following a report by a Filipino man that his son was abducted and raped by a Yemeni worker.

Police found that the Yemeni was staying illegally in the oil-rich Gulf Kingdom and that his colleagues told them he fled following his crime.

“As he tried to sneak back into his country, the police succeeded in arresting him. The Filipino boy identified him in a queue at the police station,” Sabq daily said.
