An attempt to flee her sponsor's house in Makkah cost a housemaid her life on Sunday. The reportedly “homesick” housemaid in her 40s fell to her death while trying to escape through sanitary pipes along with her personal belongings. The housemaid had arrived in the Kingdom only last month. The woman suffered multiple fractures of her arms and legs and suffered from a brain hemorrhage which caused her death. Major Abdulmohsen Al-Maiman, police spokesman in Makkah, said the maid's body has been moved to a morgue and investigations are continuing.
