Has there ever been a situation where the Saudis went, "Yes, it was our fault, and we will look into it, and we apologize to the victims"
I wonder if their dictionaries have the word "humility" in it or it's removed since it has no usage in the Kingdom of Perfect Saudis

A shameless lie. Whoever initiated this rumor should be sued and dealt with. If the Indian government actively promoted this lie, KSA should have a word with the Indian government. Such behavior could potentially damage trade ties.
This Indian maid seems to be mentally unstable as she jumped out of a window. Nor did anyone "harass" her as the only other person in that apartment was a sick 70 year women that she was hired to look after by the 70 year old women's son.
@Gasoline posted a photo of the crime scene and that maid but it was deleted due to graphic content. The moderators when seeing that photo and such proof should have changed the thread title or closed this thread.
@WebMaster I urge you to allow me to post that photo (graphic photo or not) exceptionally so this nonsense thread can be dealt with. As you can see people are desperate to post completely unfounded lies here.
KSA is not India where Muslims are burned alive, where people are killed in public for eating beef, where there is street justice like in the worst failed African states, a country where there is frequent religious riots, more rapes and murders than anywhere else, where tourists are raped and murdered etc.
A duty is a duty.
The image of her is blurred, hardly graphic:
The article:
سبق | بالصور.. "سبق" تكشف حقيقة بتر ذراع العاملة الهندية بالرياض وزيف ادعاءات وسائل إعلام عالمية
Yes, a sick 70 year old women chopped off this nut-cases hand off. And I am Donald Trump.
End of story.

Wow. So, this maid decided to escape using the window instead of walking out the door because she was "mentally unstable". How convenient. So why wasn't this mentally unstable maid of a 70 year old sweet nana not fired? Or did she have a hidden instability that suddenly rose out of nowhere, decided to escape out of a window, and have her hand cut off?
India media should be careful, because they will continue blaming the victim until they execute her for causing offense to the poor sponsors.
That's why 3000 people died in Hajj and Africans and Iranians were blamed.
Of course, part of the blame falls on India. Unless a country does not fight for their citizen's rights, no one can be surprised if they are not treated fairly.

Kin of TN maid in Saudi dismiss 'mental disturbance' claim | Zee News
Vellore/Chennai: The family of an Indian woman domestic help, whose hand was allegedly chopped off by her employer in Saudi Arabia, has dismissed as "lies and conspiracy" the claim of police in the Kingdom that she was suffering from "mental disturbances".
"Such claims are plain lies and conspiracy," M Mohan, son of 55-year-old Kasturi Munirathinam told PTI from Vellore, her native place, reacting to the claim of the Saudi employer.
The family has alleged that the woman's right hand was chopped off by her Saudi employer when she tried to escape "harassment and torture" and sought the intervention of Tamil Nadu and Central governments to bring her back home.
However, Saudi Police has said she was suffering from "mental disturbances" and tried to flee her sponsor's house. They had claimed that her hand was amputated as a result of her fall from a residential building during her bid to escape.
Questioning the claims, Mohan said: "She was absolutely fine, she was certified by competent medical authorities that she is fit both mentally and physically (a mandatory requirement for overseas jobs).
"I want the experts to say if somebody could lose their arm if they fall down," he said.
Mohan claimed that his mother, who went to Saudi Arabia three months ago, had prior to the incident, expressed apprehensions that something could happen to her.
"She said something could happen to her.. She narrated torture by her employer... I spoke with my mother over phone even recently and I know for sure that their claim (of mental disturbance) is false," he said.
Kasturi's sister S Vijayakumari, who resides in Chennai, asked, "If what they claim is true, why did not the employer notify the authorities about her mental disturbance and send her back?"
"For about three months she worked there, during that period there was no such claim. The truth is my sister endured torture, harassment and she was not even provided food, then when she tried to escape torture her right hand was chopped off by her employer," she charged.
"The whole world knows that for overseas employment it is mandatory to be medically fit (both mental and physical) without which no employer would arrange a visa."
"In their effort to end the case in Saudi employer's favour, they have spun stories like that of mental disturbances," she said.

Jaya writes to Modi, seeks intervention on TN maid arm chop off incident - The Hindu
The Indian maid's arm was allegedly chopped off by her employer in Saudi Arabia
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on Saturday wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi seeking his intervention in getting justice for a domestic help from the state whose arm was chopped off allegedly by her employer.
She urged Modi to take up the issue at the highest level in Saudi Arabia and get Kasthuri Munirathnam the best medical treatment, adequate financial compensation and facilitate her safe and early return to Tamil Nadu.
Kasthuri Munirathnam’s right hand was chopped off allegedly by her employer last month and the issue sparked an outrage.
A native of Vellore district, she had gone to Saudi Arabia about three months ago to work as a domestic help.
“I request you to take up the matter at the highest level possible so that justice is meted out to Ms. Kasturi and she is afforded the best possible medical treatment; provided adequate financial compensation and is enabled to return home safely at the earliest,” she said in the letter to Modi.
Stating that she was writing to seek his personal intervention over the brutal attack, Jayalalithaa said Kasthuri had suffered grievous injuries, including a severed arm. “Her life is reportedly at risk,” she noted.
Stating that her government had taken up the matter with the Centre after the incident, she said a report from the Indian Embassy in Riyadh indicated that Kasthuri “had stated that the injuries were inflicted on her by her employer.”
Embassy officials who had interacted with doctors attending on Kasturi had stated that her mental condition is very stable.
“However, recent media reports indicate that the Saudi Police are trying to project as though the injuries were suffered while Kasthuri tried to escape from her employer’s home and were not inflicted by the employer and also that her mental condition was not very stable,” she said.
“There is an apprehension that there could be an attempt to protect her local employers and deprive the poor domestic worker of even her basic human rights,” she said.
“Government of India should take all steps to provide the best medical treatment to her and ensure her early and safe, return to India.” Kasthuri should be provided adequate security during her stay in Saudi Arabia, she said.

Indian maid whose hand was chopped off returns from Saudi Arabia | Zee News
Chennai/New Delhi: Kasthuri Munirathanam, the 58-year-old Indian maid whose right hand was allegedly chopped off by her employer in Saudi Arabia, returned to Chennai on Saturday.
Kasthuri, who suffered grievous injuries at her employer's place while working as a domestic help in Riyadh, was accorded a warm welcome at the airport in Chennai by her relatives and state government officials.
Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa in a statement said that considering Kasthuri's poor financial condition, a sum of Rs.10 lakh has been deposited in her name in Tamil Nadu Power Finance and Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd.
Jayalalithaa said a monthly interest of Rs 8,330 will be paid to Kasthuri, who hails from Vellore district around 140 km from Chennai.
Immediately on her arrival at Chennai airport, Kasthuri was taken to a government hospital for a check-up.
Meanwhile, Vikas Swarup, spokesperson in the external affairs ministry, tweeted: "Ms Kasturi Munirathnam arrived in Chennai and was reunited with her family today morning."
"Even as our Mission in Riyadh continues to pursue the case of Ms Munirathnam, we have got her dues & facilitated her return to India," he said.
Kasthuri was taken to Dammam in Saudi Arabia in August this year and then to capital Riyadh to work as a domestic help.
Her right hand was allegedly chopped off when she tried to escape from an apartment in Riyadh where her sponsor kept her reportedly to look after his 70-year-old mother.
However, her Saudi sponsor claimed that her hand had to be amputated after it was badly damaged in her failed attempt to flee by jumping from a window.
"Police investigated the accident and checked all evidence at the site and concluded that the woman tried to jump from the window and fell from the third floor," Arab News quoted the sponsor as saying.
Meanwhile, the Indian embassy in Riyadh has taken up the matter with the Saudi Arabian government and has sought an independent probe into the incident.
According to Munirathnam's sister S Vijayakumari, the maid was forced to take up the job abroad as the family was facing financial problems after the marriage of her three daughters.
