\"Sisters<\/a>
Sisters from Saudi Arabia, who go by aliases Reem and Rawan, are pictured in Hong Kong, China March<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Two Saudi Arabian sisters are hoping for a \u201cbright, beautiful future\u201d after being granted asylum, fleeing what they describe as an abusive family and a repressive society.<\/strong>
\nThe sisters fled from their family last September while on holiday in Sri Lanka and have been stranded in Hong Kong since an aborted attempt to get to Australia, where they hoped to secure asylum.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For reasons of safety, the sisters, aged 18 and 20, who say they were beaten by their father and brothers, asked that their names and faces not be revealed, nor the country to which they have now gone.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh my God, I was so happy,\u201d the curly haired younger sister told Reuters recently, describing how she felt when told asylum had been secured.
\n\u201cI screamed \u2018It\u2019s real, it\u2019s happening\u2019 … It was just relief and unforgettable.\u201d<\/p>\n

The sisters spoke to Reuters in a room on the 22nd floor of a Hong Kong hotel shortly before they left the city. Hong Kong-based rights lawyer, Michael Vidler, who has been helping them, attended.<\/p>\n

They said they had lived in fear for six months, shuttling between 15 safe houses, staying with a nun, families and at a shelter for abused women.
\nThey feared being intercepted by Saudi officials or relatives and forced to return home, where they believe they could be punished for renouncing Islam, which is punishable by death under the Saudi system of Islamic law..<\/p>\n

The Saudi consulate in Hong Kong has not responded to requests for comment.
\nIn a statement late on Monday, Vidler confirmed the sisters had successfully traveled to a third country on \u201chumanitarian visas\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo ensure their future security we will not be disclosing the third country where the sisters are now living, nor will we be providing any further details,\u201d he wrote on the Facebook page of his law firm. \u201cThe sisters will not be giving any further media interviews.\u201d<\/p>\n

The sisters said they were treated harshly, at times beaten, by their brothers and father.
\n\u201cThey were like my jailer, like my prison officer. I was like a prisoner,\u201d the younger sister previously told Reuters.<\/p>\n

\u2018NO REGRET\u2019
\nThey were also critical of Saudi Arabia\u2019s male guardianship system that requires women to have a male relative\u2019s permission to work, travel, marry, and even get some medical treatment.
\n\u201cWomen are just like slaves,\u201d said the older sister, adding that her dream was to become a writer one day.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to settle down and to feel safe, and (to know) that I have rights and I matter in that country. Just to live normal, and discover myself … because now I own my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is not the first case in Asia this year of young Saudi women fleeing what they said was repression.
\nIn January, an 18-year-old Saudi woman was granted asylum in Canada after fleeing her family and barricading herself in a Bangkok hotel to resist being sent home.<\/p>\n

Her case drew global attention to Saudi Arabia\u2019s strict social rules, which rights groups say can trap women and girls as prisoners of abusive families.<\/p>\n

The Saudi mission in Bangkok declined to comment on that case saying it was a family affair.
\nThe kingdom has given women more rights in recent years. Women have been allowed to enter sports stadiums, vote in local elections, and take a greater role in the workforce as Saudi Arabia tries to diversify its oil-dependent economy.<\/p>\n

A ban on driving was lifted last year but many women have taken to social media to push for more freedom. Campaigners say the main sticking point remains the guardianship policy.<\/p>\n

\u2018FIND YOUR LIGHT\u2019<\/strong>
\nRiyadh has also faced scrutiny from Western allies over the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul in October and over the humanitarian consequences of its war in Yemen.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sisters watched the news of Khashoggi\u2019s death unfold while in hiding in Hong Kong.
\n\u201cI said to my sister, \u2018I\u2019m glad we left. This is the country we left\u2019, there is no regret at all,\u201d said the older sister, who counts George Orwell\u2019s \u201c1984\u201d as one of her favorite books and likened its dystopian society to her homeland.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a science fiction book but it\u2019s real in Saudi,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The pair hatched their escape plan over several years, secretly hoarding about $5,000, partly by scrimping on items they were given money to buy, and had timed it to coincide with the younger sister\u2019s 18th birthday.
\nThey said they had been wracked with uncertainty as a deadline for them to leave Chinese-ruled Hong Kong passed last month. Amnesty International had urged Hong Kong authorities not to return the sisters to Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n

The younger sister, who counts Radiohead and Queen among her favorite bands, said she hoped to inspire young people to stand against social injustice.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t just stick to the wall and cry. Because if you would cry it would be worse … Fight in your own way and you will find your own light.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dressed in a red T-shirt, jeans and sneakers, she said she had no regrets.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a bright, beautiful future awaiting me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
