On June 30, 2020, a disturbing video surfaced online, capturing the brutal flogging of a foreign woman by two Saudi women.
The victim, identified as Divinah, was seen handcuffed behind her back with her legs tied together with a rope.
Her captors repeatedly flogged her while warning her against engaging in religious activities, with one of them saying, 'You must know what brought you here, no praying here.'
As the flogging continued, the woman wailed and sought help from another woman, who joined in the beating, warning her never to pray again.
Online users claim the woman in the video is a Kenyan national, although this could not be independently verified.
The video is one of several that have leaked, capturing foreign women being assaulted in Saudi Arabia.
