Eritrean female pilot seeking asylum in Saudi Arabia

An Eritrean female pilot is seeking political asylum in Saudi Arabia after she was sent to bring back the presidential VIP plane, which remained in Saudi Arabia after the defection of two Eritrean pilots last year. According demo.archive.assenna.com an opposition website from the UK, the Eritrean government is trying to convince the Saudi authorities to reject her asylum request in an effort to deport her back to Eritrea, where her life would be in imminent danger.

The defection of Rahwa Gebrekrstos, a 34 years old pilot, is another blow to the Eritrean government after the widely publicized last year’s absconding of two experienced pilots of the Eritrean Air force to Saudi Arabia. Taking the presidential plane Yonas Weldeab and Mekonen Debesay flew to Saudi Arabia last year, where the Saudi Authorities agreed to return the plane back to Eritrea, and the Eritrean government sent the female pilot to retrieve the plane, where she too ended up seeking political asylum.

She is currently in custody in Gezan police station, where the Saudi authorities are negotiating with the Eritrean ambassador to Saudi Arabia whether they should return her back to Eritrea, if they do so it is feared she could be tortured and possibly executed as a high profile defection in Eritrea is considered to be a crime punishable by death.

We urge the human rights organizations and UNHCR to pressure the Saudi government to give her protection.

  • Truly,Truly i say to you April 1, 2013

    In this week, i am very pleased with two good news i heard. One is by courageous decision of our sister Rahwa taken. The other great news is because indirectly from pro PFDJ website “raimq com”indirectly i informed Tegadalay Ambasador Haile Menkerious as donated 250,000 dollars to support the youth movement and as a whole to support the struggle for justice and democracy. Because of that PFDJ started to defame and attack Ato Haile Menkerious. Before something danger these bandits cause against Rahwa and Ato Haile Menkorious, by all means we have to defend their lives, even in one side it seems to us they are under cover of in a good hands protection. Bravo Rahwa and Kibur Haile Menkerious!

        Belay even if it was not his money, if was in the embassy then it was there very surely because of corruption or pressure to get people pay. DOnt act as if you dont know about any corruption of this Shifta or Mafia in Eritrea!!!

        He is very brave no doubt if this is true what was written above on what you unfortunetly commented.

    NEGA, EMGASORYA AND ALIKE

    CAN’T YOU PEOPLE SEE THE CURRENT SITUATION. YOUR DICTATOR AND THE PFDJ MAFIA SYSTEM IS CRUMBLING IN FRONT OF YOUR EYEs. WHAT IS GOING TO TAKE FOR YOU PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE DICTATOR IS IN HIS LAST PHASE. DO YOU NEED TO BE HIT ON THE HEAD WITH A BRICKS TO HEAR. OR YOU WERE HIT WITH BRICKS OR you WERE HIT on the HEAD AS AN INFANTS?

    IF WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS TRUE THAT AMBASADOR HILE MENKEROIOUS GAVE MONEY FOR A GOOD CAUSE, I THINK IT IS A GOOD NEWS. A QUARTER MILION DOLLARS IS A HHANDSOME DONATION.

    HIS MONEY OR NOT IT IS A DONATION TO DEFEAT THE DICTATOR. IT IS ALL GOOD!

          LET ME TELL YOU SOME INSTEAD OF ARGUING WITH SOMEONE WHO GOT FAIR UNDERSTANDING TOWARDS ERITREAN ISSUE WHY DON’T YOU CHALLENGE GUYS LIKE oromay eritrea WHO OPENLY
          UNDERMINE ERITREAN STRUGGLE AND CALL IT banditry ?

          • Harnetna 2013 April 2, 2013

            Nega whore, you know the event in Eritrea that there is no rule of law but one man rule !! you must be close relative of the dictator and your job is become to spend day and night online, however you have no value, you have the truth come out with your pictures and discuss issues manrly. Otherwise you are real prostituted whore bastard wedi shrmuta. go to Meskerem or other PFDJ shoe lickers.

          • Genet April 2, 2013

            MR NEGA
            I DON’T NEED ANY ONE TO TELL ME ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN MY COUNTRY AND TO MY PEOPLE IN ERITREA AND ALL OVER THE WORLD. I AHVE A BRAIN I CAN CRITICALLY THINK. I HAVE A HEART TO FEEL MY PEOPLS’ SUFFERING. SO MR NEGA, TO YOU INDEPENDENT THINKING IS BEING LOST. FROM WHAT I AM READING, YOUR THOGHT PROCESS DOESN’T INDICATE YOU HAVE A FAIR UNDERSTANDING OF ERITREAN ISSUES. YOU DODGED OR AVOID TO ANSWERE MY QUESTIONS IN THE PAST. ARE YOU A POLICIAN? WHEN IT COMES TO THE DICTATOR AND PFDJ SYSTEM TO SPEAK AGAINST IT, THERE IS NO NEED TO LIE. THE DICTATOR AND PFDJ SYSTEM IS HEADING TO THE NORTH KOREA STYLE GOV. IF IT IS NOT THERE YET. MR NEGA, PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE BEGING TO SAY THE DICTATOR IS THE FATHER OF ERITREAN INDEPENDENT. DO YOU KNOW HOW SCARY THIS STATEMENT IS? TO ALL ERITREAN WHO HAVE A BRAIN, THAT MEANS WE HAVE TO WORSHIP THIS MAN AND HIS CHILDERN AND THEIR CHILDERN. NORTH KOREA, NORTH KOREA…. WE ERITREAN WILL NOT ALLOW THAT KIND OF BETRAYAL TO OUR BELOVED MARTYRS WHO WERE NOT RANDOM DEAD PEOPLE BUT OUR BROHTERS AND SISTERS WHO ARE MISSED EVERY SINGLE DAY.

            WHEN IT COMES TO THE DICTATOR AND PFDJ’S ACTIONS, THER IS NO LIE BUT A HARD FACT.
