“I closed the phone and then called the school bus supervisor, a Syrian, and he told me that all the buses have returned but that he would make sure. “I was surprised when the supervisor of the buses, called back and apologized and said it was a mistake and that they found my child asleep in the bus and promised to return her to her home as soon as possible.

Then they checked the ID of the supervisor and the bus driver and discovered they are domestic workers and that the sponsor of the supervisor had filed a missing persons report on his ‘maid’. The father pointed out the legal affairs department of the school requested him to waive the lawsuit in return for KD 1,000, but he refused.
