Will consider 18-yr-old Saudi girl's asylum plea: Australia
Australia has said that it will "carefully" consider the asylum plea of Saudi Arabia's 18-year-old Rahaf Mohammed al-Qunun who fled alleged abuse by her family. Rahaf arrived at Bangkok's main airport from Kuwait after running away from her family and said that she plans to seek asylum in Australia. She's now in the care of the UN refugee agency, UNHCR.
