Her condition is still in danger.. Habiba is missing. Awareness and she has a brain bleed that will not stop. Secondly, take care of yourself and your daughters. People are still harmful… May God keep the evils of people away from us.”
The girl mentioned, “Habiba took an Uber from my city and was going to Heliopolis at 6:50. Then Habiba’s friends called her to see where she had arrived. Someone answered and told them, ‘This owner of the phone fell from the car.’ She kept tossing and turning until she hit the cement barrier on the road.” Suez Road…and when he asked her what happened to you…she said the Uber driver wanted to kidnap me and she went into convulsions and lost consciousness.”
