When Lolita came to Australia in 2022, she was fleeing an older man she’d been forced to marry as a child in Saudi Arabia.
She told confidants she’d escaped a cycle of violence and sexual servitude so extreme it had repeatedly landed her in hospital.
But less than a year after her arrival, she vanished - last seen by a friend who claims he watched as she was taken from her apartment by a group of Saudi men in a black van.
Records show that Lolita, who is in her early 30s and goes by a single name, was put on a flight from Melbourne to Kuala Lumpur in May 2023. From there, her lawyer believes she was returned to Saudi Arabia and detained.
But Lolita’s exact whereabouts and safety - or whether she is even alive - remain unknown.
Well, that wasn’t included in the multiple insufferable Riyadh Season marketing and promo packages during last night’s fights.
Hmmmm…you know, I’m starting to think that allowing Saudi Arabia to financially take over boxing and layer in their propaganda between every fucking fight on the card isn’t such a good idea.
Not just boxing. Golf and futbol are at least two others heavily influenced by Saudi money.
