A man from Qassim is appealing to the public in Jeddah for help in finding his eight months pregnant wife who disappeared from his parked car while he left to search for accommodation. The 27-year-old woman, who doctors say suffers from depression, had been taken to a hospital in Jeddah recently and was asked to return the following day for further examinations. When she and her husband began the search for furnished apartments, she was left alone in the vehicle in Saqr Quraish Street as her husband descended to make inquiries, and upon his return he found her missing. “I was told by someone in one of the shops nearby that she had been seen going into a neighboring district, but I looked everywhere and couldn't find her,” he said. The husband told police that his wife was wearing a red dress and had no mobile telephone or identity documents. “I now have to go back to Qassim to take care of our three-year-old daughter,” the husband said Wednesday. “Police have said my presence here in Jeddah serves no purpose.”
