A debt-ridden woman in Abu Dhabi who has been living in a car for more than two years is hoping her ordeal will soon come to an end.
Rachida, the 43-year-old French woman, got a sigh of relief after authorities waived off her overstay fine of more than Dh100,000 this week.
"I don't have anything except a rental car I am driving. I am surviving on dole from friends and acquaintances. But I still feel I am blessed as my fines got waived and I can finally go home and see my mother," Rachida told Khaleej Times.
The single woman said she approached the immigration authorities and they referred her to Al Ain court on June 24.
Court papers verified by Khaleej Times confirmed she was fined Dh2,500 and have been ordered to exit the country before July 7.
