Daughter Desperately Searching For Her Parents' Bodies After They Died During Hajj pilgrimage In Saudi Arabia
A woman is desperately searching for her parents' bodies after they died during extreme heat while fulfilling their dream of traveling for the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia.
Alieu Dausy Wurie, 71, and Isatu Tejan Wurie, 65, were last heard from on June 15 when the couple told their daughter they had been waiting for hours in extreme heat for transportation to take them to Mount Arafat.
It was the couple's lifelong dream to complete the hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca which draws millions each year.
'They saved their entire lives to embark on this journey and they didn't receive the proper preparation, the proper documents, it was just a nightmare overall experience,' their daughter Saida Wurie told CNN.
