Urging people to keep posting messages about Qunun, Alharbi said: “Yesterday we won, but this is not the big winning. “The claims made by Ms Al-Qunun that she may be harmed if returned to Saudi Arabia are deeply concerning,” a spokesman said on Monday night. Her case has brought international attention to the obstacles women face in Saudi Arabia.
