Female Eritrean Air Force captain defects to Saudi Arabia

I know Eritreans and most of them fled to Sudan, Egypt and the Gulf States during the Eritrean Ethiopean war, the majority of the Eritreans outside Eritrea speaks fluent Arabic. This country is a joke since the majority of the civilians are Muslims so as the military while the ruthless dictator is a Christian and the top generals. I don't see plans for military coups or anything against the dictator. We can't even get updates in Eritrea, he bans them internationally while there is only a single Eritrean channel "Eritrean TV". A big betrayal and a disgrace to Issayah, the Saud helped him against the Ethiopians and the Arabs offered him a seat in the Arab league but he rejected and called them "weak".
 
Don't know why you quoted me in your reply :D

Female fighter pilots ----- No

Female pilots ------------ Numerous

Man and Women are biologically different thus roles are different........no need to call names.

If you are talking about female Airforce pilots , then India already have them . Heck we even have female navy pilots.

IDK how India came into the discussion but the fact remains that I am also interested why the female pilot defected to SA considering the fact that they don't even allow women drivers "openly".

Female Eritrean Air Force captain defects to Saudi Arabia


By Tesfa-Alem Tekle

April 8, 2013 (ADDIS ABABA) - A female Eritrean Air Force pilot has defected to Saudia Arabia where she is seeking political asylum in Saudi Arabia, in in a latest sign of embarrassment to the dictatorial regime in Asmara.

Captain Rahwa Gebrekristos deserted to Saudi Arabia after being sent to the kingdom last week on assignment to retrieve a presidential jet that had been waiting for return following the defection of another two air force pilots last year.

However, like her two former colleagues, Yonas Woldeab and his deputy Mekonnen Debesay, who secretly flew president Isaias Afewerki’s plane to Saudi Arabia last October before defecting, Gebrekristos is also claiming asylum.

Opposition sources allege that Eritrean authorities are secretly consulting with their Saudi counterparts to deport the 34-year-old pilot.

She is currently being held at a police station in the western city of Jizan until Saudi authorities decide on her fate.

An Eritrean opposition official told Sudan Tribune that if Gebrekristos is deported she could face torture or other inhuman treatments, as well as a long-term prison sentence or even the death penalty.

Under Eritrean law, military members who defect are considered traitors, a crime punishable by death.

Nessredin Ahmed, the spokesperson for foreign affairs at the Red Sea Afar Democratic Organisation (RSADO), called on the international community to apply pressure on the Saudi government not to deport Gebrekristos, saying she is in need of protection.

RSADO has also urged the Saudi government to fully respect its obligations under international laws on asylum seekers and avoid forcibly returning the Eritrean pilot to her homeland.

The defection of the national air force pilot is another blow to the regime of the reclusive Red Sea nation, which is facing growing public discontent.

Dozens of air force pilots and members have defected from the country in protest against ongoing political oppression and its unpopular military policies.

The one-party state, which has been led by Afewerki since gaining independence in 1993, has among the world’s worst records on human rights and press freedom.

The country is Africa’s foremost jailer of journalists and is also known by right groups as a “giant prison”, with the tiny nation home to up to 10,000 political prisoners.

My post was a reply to post #15. The member called India "land of rape". I asked the member if Saudi Arabia was a land of "racists and abusers"??, which was in the source provided for this thread. Looks like you overreacted here :P
 
Probably you did not notice him advising others of not visiting SA when ppl of his country count is 3,500,000 and still increasing.

Dude nobody advised others not to visit SA, its all ur imagination. In response to post #3 I replied that she should have escaped to the UK, US or Europe as they wouldn't deport her in the current situation :angry:
